AFL football Grand Final - Perth flights

[Tim B]

Quite funny how sales of flights from Fremantle International to Melbourne have almost ground to a halt, but, more seriously, for people such as myself, who had the week off work in Sydney, flights to anywhere were very expensive, given the school holidays. I spent a week in the cold, wind and rain in Sydney instead. I should have just spent the money and headed off, anywhere.

I know how you feel Tim. I just did the same for school holidays.

Usually the only flights that don't turn to rip off are SYD-OOL - usually though.

With the Eagles now in the GF, QF has put on extra flights between PER-MEL next weekend.

The extra flights are operated mostly by 332 with the occasional 73H, one exception is QF 1263 on Sunday (4th October) which is scheduled to be operated by a 744.

[Malcolm Parker]

The airlines better start putting on more seats on the BNE - SYD run Sunday morning already full and filling up fast on Saturday . Both qld teams playing in the nrl final on Sunday night .
I can see QF have already put a 744 onto the MEL-PER post afl final

[Zac M]

For those interested there will be a 744 operating PER-SYD next sunday evening rather than having it position back. Plenty of seats availiable.

[Arthur T]

I wonder despite we don't have an all WA AFL Grand Final we have a all Qld NRL Grand Final next week.

So may I ask do we have B747-400 or Airbus A380 operating between SYD and BNE next weekend?

[Michael R]

You never know Arthur T but looking at staff travel on those dates which clash with the long weekend and the ending of school holidays their are very few seats left on flights which are serviced by those aircraft.
