Emirates To Begin 4x Weekly Adelaide Service From November

[JamesL]

So how come both QF & VA backtrack on 23 landings?

Adelaide is A380 friendly. cant see any prob for 777-300 at all
Might use selected taxiways but no need to back track I can think of
In my 20 years airside back tracking is seldom seen if ever.

Interesting listening to News Radio yesterday with the SA State Government very tight-lipped on how much they have paid Emirates to fly to Adelaide. Would be interesting to see what sort of money is thrown at an airline to have them want to fly to your destination. No doubt the SA Government thinks that the return will outweigh the cost.
