EBD flew BNE Syd this minding with Qf6*** number, has it been in the hangar for reconfig?

Rowan McKeever · #**403** 25th March 2016, 09:27 AM

From what I can work out, EBD hasn't been reconfigured yet? EBN just came out. Could be just another repositioning flight

C Patters · #**404** 25th March 2016, 09:34 AM

EBD has been reconfigured already....word is EBM is next but still awaiting confirmation.

Christopher Campbell · #**405** 26th March 2016, 09:09 AM

EBM will enter Brisbane for refurbishment in the morning of Tuesday (29th) after operating QF652.

Incorrect. EBM will remain in service as is until April 3 atleast....thats as far as i can see and it ends that day in Melbourne so safe to say in service past then.

I cant find any of the non-reconfigured offline....so either a reconfigured is in for a check or QPJ is in soon....(I cant see international movemebts so no way for me to tell)

Ok no worries, I was just copying what's someone was saying about EBM on australianfrrquentflyer forum for the a330 refurbishment. It wasn't my own information.

I was pulling up the seat map for QF464 MEL-SYD on 25 April and it's the one for EBM (since EBN has already been reconfigured) so it's probably staying in that config until at least then and probably after as well.
