Flightaware is showing VH-OEE scheduled for departure as QF6031 to HKG at 11.50 AEDT.
Looks like the second rescue flight to Wuhan is about to head off??

Interesting to note that Skytraders A319's VH-VHP and VH-VCJ are currently enroute back to Melbourne from Learmonth, especially since the second QF flight will probably be arriving sometime tomorrow. Perhaps different arrangements are in place for this group, but I was under the impression that they will be going to Christmas Island also.

OEE will probably return to Darwin as they are planning to use a NT mining Camp near Howard Springs.

The Government announced a third evacuation flight today to be operated by Qantas on Wednesday, this time out of Japan to Darwin, for Australians who have been stranded on the Diamond Princess cruise ship.
No other details as yet.

VH-OEE again will depart SYD tonight for HND then onto DRW arriving tomorrow afternoon.

Anyone know what time the departure from SYD is?
OEH is scheduled to operate tonight's regular QF25.

Doesn't look like OEE is heading out tonight?
