The next MAX 8 does BNE-SYD-PER-SYD-BNE from 9 Oct.

Cheers Lloyd, I've been waiting to see those changes (or something similar) show up in the res system. Good to know they're there now

Arg.. yeah .. normally its AA with this sort of inaccurate articles

ET is no longer saying that 8IA is arriving tomorrow or 28th June. The first sentence says, Virgin Australia’s first Boeing 737 MAX is expected to arrive this week... They must have changed it after first publishing the article.

Was due to leave early hours of this morning Australia time as VA9947 but looks to keep getting pushed back

[Dennis McLean]

Now estimated departure from BFI at 19.14 on 27th around 12.14pm today our time

[Stirling D]

Cancelled for today, retimed for a 1555 arrival on Friday into BNE.
Departing BFI at 1000L on the 28th.

Looks like a whole bunch of expectant fathers in a maternity ward.

Based on the times in the schedule showing on Flightradar24 I've converted them to the equivalent Australian EST times with dates for the delivery flight of VH-8IA. This is to make it easier for me to follow its progress. I hope that it is of assistance to you as well.

It deps BFI 3:00 29/6; arr KOA 9:25 (6:25 stage length) and overnights. Deps KOA 3:30 30/6; arr NAN 10:10 (6:40); deps NAN 11:00; arr BNE 15:55 (4:55).

Not ideal times to watch its departure from either BFI or KOA and obviously there could be last minute changes to these times and dates etc.
