This aircraft overnights in MEL, probably to reduce crew costs - like some other international flights at present, it isn't daily - so on Thursday 23 April, MH128, the 0915 hours MEL - KUL is predicted to depart an hour behind schedule.

The next MH129/MH128 are in a week's time.

1840 on past history is a little unrealistic unless all goes swimmingly.

Not sure which aircraft is providing this.

Would the AKL-KUL MH132 possibly do a splash and dash and pickup some stranded passengers in SYD?./ I can see several impediments that would prevent this

MH122 ended up having A333 9M-MTB that was earlier on MH141, the 0910 hours KUL - SYD that arrived at 2004 hours, 29 minutes late. MH122 then took off at 2359 so it must have received an exemption from 'the delegate' of the Federal Department of Infrastructure, Transport etc. It arrived KUL at 0630 hours, 615 minutes late.
