The A220 is being withdrawn from Launceston from March. The ****show continues! Apparently to be replaced with the E190 and a few weekly 737 evening flights. Hobart services are also likely to be changed to E190 and mainline services too. A terrible rollout for passengers and staff alike.

The A220s will be swapped onto the Darwin-Singapore route since the E190s don't have the range.

It makes these media events a few months ago at HBA and LST airports seem a bit silly now. All this fanfare for the new A220 only to be replaced with Alliance and mainline crews a from Feb/March.

Qantas has announced that it will be launching a new route from Sydney to Sapporo (CTS), becoming the fourth destination in Japan, alongside Tokyo Haneda and Narita, and Osaka Kansai. Flight number will be QF107/108.

Looks like VZT is positioning back to Sydney from Townsville after having a repaint. Do we know which 737-800 is next to have a repaint?
