JQ A330s back to Qantas from next month

[Wenglock M]

VH-EBD will be ferrying back to BNE from SIN as QF6006 tomorrow (15 November) - due in at 20.30.

[Brad Myer]

EBE and EBF will the last to transfer from JQ to QF next year.

Apparently EBJ/EBK will be the 2 A330s that will leave the fleet, and the last remaining 330s at JQ.

Going on the above info it looks like they did! Mind you the fat lady has yet to sing!

Saw EBD close up in Sydney yesterday. Absolutely beaming in her new skin!

Is VH-EBP the next bird that's being refurbished?

From the Qantas Source:
QANTAS A330-200 VH-EBP Enters Brisbane Maintenance.
December 12, 2014, QANTAS A330-200 VH-EBP entered the Brisbane maintenance facility this morning after arriving as QF652 from Perth.

EBF has been transferred but isn't it still flying with JQ?

The first refurbished A330-200 VH-EBV, should be departing BNE now 2:35pm AEST for an arrival into SYD at 4:30pm AEDT. After that it's expected to turn around to operate it's first service as QF571 (When they said towards the end of 2014 I didn't expect it to be Dec 31st ).

EBV is in service, operating the QF571 and will return to MEL as the red eye.
