Qantas 737 Refurbishment tracker

[moa999]

well see if the VXP is added to the new 737 qantas seat map

Again 30 rows shown on EF seat alert for QF431 SYD-MEL.

Appears VXU is the replacement in BNE

 

[Christopher Campbell]

Max from yssy forum has recently posted that VXP now shows up as the new cabinet B figuration on the internal FIDS. Good that's cleared up!

 

[moa999]

Appears VXU is the replacement in BNE

Nope. Maybe VYL In 12/2

 

[Christopher Campbell]

Yeah I just noticed the same VXUas well

 

[Christopher Campbell]

Could VYA be also having a C check as well as refurb. It's been 14 days since it entered Brisbane Maintenance?

Maybe. But most BNE refurbs have been 16-17 days. Just the last one that was 12.

 

[Christopher Campbell]

Yeah that's true

VH-VYK out tonight as QF453 SYD-MEL so refurb #18. EF showing 30 rows and only 2 spare seats on the first flight.

Will wait on VYA for an update.

 

[moa999]

Given it appears from YSSY posts that VYA may also be undergoing a check in BNE.

VH-VYF is back in the air from refurbishment in Sydney yesterday. VH-VYA in Brisbane should be out any day now since its been 16 days.

 

[moa999]

Looks like VH-VXU into SYD.

 

[moa999]

VH-VZX out of Brisbane yesterday. EF is showing 30 rows (which if correct would make the first of the 2009-15 aircraft with IFE)

 

[Christopher Campbell]

VH-VYA should be out by the end of this upcoming week do you think?

 

[moa999]

VH-VYA should be out by the end of this upcoming week do you think?

Based on previous timing yes. Also. Appears VYL is getting a check of some sort, so now estimating VYL out 13/3

 

[moa999]

And VYL popped out this afternoon as QF663 BNE-ADL.
VXA looks to have gone into BNE.

Just a small thing but wondering why you have it listed as "VZL-VZS,VZT-VZZ" rather than just "VZL-VZZ". I realise the BSI started at VZT but it doesn't really change anything from the refurbishment point of view.

I know I'm being picky. Your work on this thread (and the A330 refurb one) is amazing!

Suspect that's why I did it, but agree it's minor.

Thx. Started more so I had an idea of what I was flying - albeit I got pushed into the 737s

 

[RickyT84]

Looks like VH-VZY may also be under going refurbishment (in BNE). It hasn't operated any flights since arriving in BNE on 1 March.

Perhaps its getting a heavy check at the same time as well?

 

[RickyT84]

VH-VXA was back in service yesterday afternoon after a short stay (~6 days) in BNE maintenance so it is not refurbished.

 

[kermatu]

TBH I havent seen the curtain pulled on any short flights in quite a while, even my last BNE-PER in a 737 curtain wasn't pulled J cabin was just a free for all for the toilet, guess now that wont improve, it will make it worse, have always felt the curtain and curtain 'wall' has made the J cabin feel like a seperate cabin but now Y & J are just one big happy family!

I've been on several 737 flights this week - always in Row 4; always old configs (with curtain) and on all of them the curtain was wide open all flight. So I am coming to this conclusion too.
