I'm starting to think that this thread would be a lot shorter if we changed it to "Qantas flights that leave on time"

I don't think I would want to be on that flight...

I don't think I would won't to be on that flight...

I'm not convinced that flight is going anywhere at the rate they're tracking. The inbound aircraft has been on the ground since 22:50 last night...

Either they have run out of duct tape or it is a more serious problem...

And pax will likely arrive middle of the night in BLR (if it doesnt get canx) missing all onward connections. Desperately need EU261 equivalent.

In more on Wednesday 9 October, as I predicted a few posts ago, QF4 was formed today by the arriving AKL-SYD QF4 that had earlier been to JFK.

'The 4' arrived in Sydney at 0932 hours, three minutes early with B789 VH-ZNH. It is abnormal for an 0935 hours scheduled international arrival to form a timetabled 1010 hours departure, so again, QFi must be short of properly rostered B789s.

QF3 took off at 1225 hours with expected gate arrival in AKL becoming 1653 hours, 108 minutes late. This is only 12 minutes before the timetabled departure at 1705 from AKL up to JFK.

A388 VH-OQB on the 1030 hours SYD-JNB QF63 was in the sky at 1207 so a 1707 hours, 57 late arrival at gate is the forecast.

A332 VH-EBV is operating QF51, the scheduled 1105 hours BNE up to SIN that was airborne bang on 1200 'high noon'. Arrival looks like 1751 hours, 31 late.

Tuesday 8 October in the USA has seen B789 VH-ZND operating QF22 from DFW to MEL, the scheduled 1940 hours departure airborne at 2059. Arrival on Thursday 10 should be about 0555 at gate, half an hour behind the timetable.
