NXG is scheduled to leave Canberra tomorrow morning, that said if the last few are anything to go off there’s bound to be a false start or two, so later in the week likely more realistic

Looks like though they didn't repair the engine cowling (still has tape on the side) & also it needed a paint touch up near cockpit windows which wasn't done as well. Thought all these things are done when the aircraft goes in for a check??

Also from above:
FLEET AND SUSTAINABILITY UPDATE The Group took delivery of eight new and mid-life aircraft during 1H24 as its fleet renewal program ramps up. A further 14 aircraft are expected to arrive during 2H24. Below are key updates on the Group’s overall fleet plan; please refer to Investor Presentation for more detail. 8 additional A321XLRs have been allocated to Qantas Domestic from the Group’s existing Airbus order. This takes the total number of this type allocated to Qantas Domestic to 28 as part of the gradual replacement of its 737 fleet. Four additional mid-life A319s have been purchased for Network Aviation and will be based in WA to help meet demand from the resources sector. These additional aircraft are expected to arrive progressively during calendar 2024, taking this fleet to nine. Manufacturing delays have impacted the delivery dates for the first A321XLR for Qantas Domestic by three months to early-2025 and the A350 for Qantas International (and Project Sunrise) by approximately six months to mid-2026. The A321LRs delivered to Jetstar are achieving a 20 per cent improvement in fuel burn per seat, contributing to a 12 per cent unit cost improvement compared with the older A320s they replace. This is helping towards the Group’s interim emission reduction target of 25 per cent[5] by 2030. |
