I’m skeptical as to what they’re replacing the 767 with…The two A330 freighters appear to be on contract to AUS Post whereas EFR usually operates to Hong Kong etc.

Also if EFR were to go there is still B767s on the register operating for Tasman Cargo/DHL

Ahh yes, you're correct - I retract my last comment. Two other 76s for Tasman.

With more A321P2Fs arriving soon, this will be replacing the 3 B737F's and the 767F. I am sure we will see the A330 head to HKG soon enough.

AeroRoutes published a few months ago that the A332P2F was going to operate QF7525/7526 SYD-HKG-SYD from 2/6/24. I presume that this will replace the current three times per week B763F that is operating the route.

The B763F also currently operates QF7523/7524 to AKL and CHC once a week on Thursday evening ex SYD, with the A332P2F currently operating on Mon, Tue and Wed ex SYD. Both EBE & EBF have operated this service in the past few weeks.

VH-ZNE B789 is currently operating HKG-SYD as QF6010 following maintenance at HEACO since February 20th. Presumably ZNF will be off to maintenance soon.

VH-EBN has not flown since arriving BNE from LAX on March 13th, presumably it is getting wifi work done?
