Qantas boosts international capacity, wet lease Finnair aircraft

Finnair, including the wet lease, has been covered in a new Mentour Now! video. It would appear that the AY crews operating the QF flights are rotated between Finland and Australia via BKK. They have 9 day trips HEL-BKK-SYD-SIN-SYD-BKK-HEL.
If AY are having crew problems, then it would make sense for them to ask to reduce to 1 of the routes and shorten the trip time by dropping the SYD-SIN-SYD rotation.

Before BKK started, the tech crew were doing HEL-SIN-SYD-SIN-HEL. I would've thought they'd do the same with BKK, ie. HEL-BKK-SYD-BKK-HEL.

The cabin crew are from the respective SIN and BKK bases so each SYD trip is a new trip for them.
