Sunday?

You are correct. Sunday. Makes for a good long weekend in Melbourne, I suppose.

But it departs MEL at 7 am on Sunday

Guess that means my hotel will be the Melbourne Airport Park Royal.

I reckon the airport would give priority to international departures for take offs and landings over domestic (all else being equal)

I'm not sure that they do.

My advice would be to always book a departure on Fridays, since the SYD > MEL leg rarely seems to get cancelled on Fridays (but the Monday ones almost always do).

Flight was cancelled on Friday and is delayed tomorrow

Sitting in the lounge at the moment waiting for my 1-hour delayed JQ flight to Melbourne. It took 12 minutes to get from check-in desk to the lounge today.

As long as you're aware and prepared for the LAG restrictions and ID checks, then it's kind of fun and novel, and the lounges are better, but there is no way I'd do this if I had anything urgent to attend to on the other side.

That beat my 18 mins to go from checkin to Flounge here in Sydney !
Are you here or in the J bus?
