Qantas Delays/Cancellations

[Melburnian1]

It is OQJ again. Must be more time to get maintenance clearance after it went unserviceable on Monday and couldn’t operate QF11.

EDIT: further pushed back to tomorrow afternoon now. @Melburnian1

Oh dear. This has to affect future other flights.

Also on Wednesday 2 October 2024, A332 VH-EBN on QF41, the 1355 hours early afternoon SYD up to CGK is estimated to shortly depart at 1630 hours. This will mean the overnight QF42 back to Sydney is also tardy.

UPDATE: QF41 was in the air at 1649 so CGK gate arrival should be about 2105 hours, 125 minutes behind schedule. The returning QF42 (the 2045 hours) may depart at around the 2235 hours mark so SYD gate arrival tomorrow morning could be at 0800 hours, 70 minutes late.

Tomorrow’s QF11 is delayed until 9.35pm. I suspect OQJ is taking the 9.35pm flight and the inbound QF64 will operate the almost 24 hour delayed QF11.

I have only just noticed that this morning's 1155 hours QF93 from MEL to LAX was cancelled.

QF94, the LAX to MEL scheduled 2150 hours B789 on Wednesday 2 October is expected to push back on Thursday 3 at 1040 hours midmorning USA west coast time, arriving MEL at 1920 hours on Friday 4 instead of 0645 hours, so 755 minutes late.

Friday 4's 1155 hours QF93 (MEL to LAX) is very optimistically predicted to depart at 2045 hours mid evening.

The A380 and B789 QFi fleets are not having a good run. It doesn't take many cancellations or significant delays for a few thousand passengers to be affected.

Morning update on QF128 from HKG using QPG- the flight had a 2 hr delay despite arriving as 127 on time to HKG…

Actual take off from HKG was 2131 instead of 1930 and 63 mins late - now arriving at 0758

Also QF 163 SYD to WLG on 737(XZL) caused some news yesterday with foul smell and returned - causing a crew member in hospital

Bizarre stench forces Qantas flight to turn back

QF163 left Sydney shortly after 6.40pm on Wednesday night but was forced to turn around about an hour into its scheduled three-hour flight to Wellington.
