Unuasual arrival into Brisbane tonight

Hia all, Not to sure what this is but on the Brisbane flight information page it has 5K 622 arriving at 9:15pm tonight from Kuala Lumpur. Could anyone in the know maybe post what this is.

Thanks in advance.

HiFly has the code of 5K so it could be a leased A340.

Yeah thats what I was thinking but more to the point why is it coming and hopefully maybe it might come to SYD. (Hopefully)

Morning all,

Sorry for dragging this topic back up...

CS-TQM has been replaced by ex SAS A343 OY-KBM. From another forum OY-KBM has just arrived into BNE this morning. So expect it into Sydney sometime this week.

Not sure how long OY-KBM is in country for. It is all White
