Qantas Oneworld livery

does anyone know if the Oneworld livery worn by -OEB and -EBL is temporary? The Oneworld is in fact a decal and the Qantas lettering is still visible beneath on both aircraft, so I assume it must be

Jack,

It certainly is - somewhere in the thread on the Socceroos logojet OJS is a post of a link to a youtube video. The one world logos are the same deal.

EBL operated QF86 last night to MEL. It was then later towed to the Maintenance Base.

As flight QF6030 to Auckland.
QF6031 returned back in Melbourne just on 2am.
I believe EBL is still in Melbourne as I type.

EBL was used by QF to get stranded Emirates pax to/from AKL as the EK aircraft had to return to MEL and was declared U/S.

Yes noticed an EK A340-500 parked at the international stand off bay last night, thanks Brad for that

Thanks for the info Brad. The Emirates flight in question was EK406/7.
Did the aircarft actually return to Melbourne or did it receive maintenace in Auckland?

^ I'm asuming the EK Aircraft in question is a 380?
