Friday 9 June 2023 saw VJ85, the scheduled 1930 hours SGN down to SYD (A333 VN-A814) not airborne until 2221 hours, so SYD arrival at gate on Saturday 10 was 132 minutes late at 0932 hours.

The returning VN86 (1015 hours is the timetabled pushback) is showing as likely to be off blocks at 1145 hours, so arrival in SGN will be more than an hour late.
 
A333 VN-A814 on Friday 30 June 2023's VJ85, the 1930 hours early evening from SGN overnight to SYD took off at 2149.

Arrival at gate should be 0832 hours, 72 late on Saturday 1 July.
 
Friday 30 August 2024 has VJ85 from SGN to SYD (A333 VN-A815) arriving at 0817 hours, 57 minutes tardy. VJ86 returning is the 1015 hours so it may depart close to time if all goes well.
 
Vietjet SGN-MEL diverting to Canberra due windshear, after two missed approaches.

Listening in, they asked for Sydney, controller advised curfew so they are heading to Canberra, which is currently uncontrolled airspace.

A333 VN-A810 on VJ81 was airborne at 0154 hours on Monday 2 September from CBR, arriving MEL at 0258 hours, 263 minutes late.

The return flight, VJ82 (timetabled ex MEL at 0030 hours) is not expected to depart until 1500 hours this afternoonn.

The return flight was airborne at 1540 hours with estimated arrival in SGN becoming 2057 mid evening instead of 0605 this morning, so 892 minutes late.
 
A different flight number, VJ9982, was used for what is normally VJ82. On 5 September 2024, a Thursday, this nominally timetabled 0600 hours departure was not airborne from MEL until 1214 with arrival for A333 VN-A814 likely in SGN at 1745 hours local time. As far as I can work out, this plane ought have left MEL yesterday as VJ82 at 0030. There was also a 5 September VJ82 that's operated normally: A333 VN-A812.
 
Monday 16 September's VJ86, the 1015 hours SYD up to SGN was in the sky at 1107 hours with A333 VN-A816. It should be at its destination gate at 1651 this afternoon, 46 late.
 
On Wednesday 18 September, VJ83 (A333 VN-A811, the 1040 hours SGN down to BNE not airborne until 1133) should arrive at 2229 this late evening, 34 minutes behind schedule.
