VKB is due to return to service today operating JQ43 MEL to DPS departing at 9:10. This B788 has not flown since it arrived in MEL on 31/8/22.

VKL has filed to ferry from SYD to MEL this morning as JQ7991 at 10:00. This is the last of the Jetstar unserviceable B788s with VKB returning to service. Will it be written off in MEL following its lightening strike damage?
As I mentioned upthread Jetstar confirmed all aircraft back this week so no write off.
VKH operated a ferry from CNS to BNE yesterday then operated Wednesdays delayed JQ57 as JQ1057 to DPS , it’s about 5km from me at present in DPS so presumably same cabin and tech crew operating a return service today after a break.
Interestingly todays JQ57 has an 8 hour delay, no doubt waiting for VKH to get back, which makes todays JQ44 now an overnight flight. The normal overnight breaks should absorb the delays.
