Yeah, like Max said the two-class B717 fleet was pretty stretched as it was (any kind of cancellation or delay (not talking the 10 minute 'our paperwork has been held up' types, but the mechanical, holding, etc type delays) tended to have knock-on effects), then YQU was damaged in the storms in Brissie and hasn't flown since. I understand YQU is now in a hangar undergoing repairs and according to QF's online schedule the B737s stop covering the B717s at the end of this week (although I doubt that is a result of YQU coming back, and more likely because NXK, which is currently in the CBR hangar, is going to sub instead?).
