Most of that is last year's schedule, so subject to change is pretty likely IMHO.

You might have understated LST a bit, current schedules show a 6th LST-MEL on Mon,Fri,Sun for summer.

Still trying to work out what each port actually gets. Press release says JQ operating up to 242 services in and out per week with the changes. By my calculations, from HBA, 6 x MEL + 3 x SYD + 1 x OOL and from LST 4 x MEL, 2 x SYD and 1 x BNE adds up to 238 per week, so are these new services actually new or just re-announcements of prior summer increases? Also, confirmation on 320/321 types would be nice, since 321s currently visit HBA daily and have been trialed at LST.
