I see ZNL is off to SCL and ZND to JFK today.

Anyone knows which 789 will do the first QF5 SYD-PER-FCO flight for this season?

[Brenden S]

I think it was ZNC

[James Smith]

Yes, ZNC confirmed, Michael.

ZNN must be close to being delivered given it was in the paint hanger a few weeks ago

[James Smith]

From another forum, the delivery date for ZNN is scheduled for 28/6/23, which I presume is ex PAE, arriving into MEL? on the morning of 30/6/23.

Thanks guys!

VH-ZNM should be operating QF8 DFW-SYD and arriving tomorrow morning (23/6). ZNC which operated SYD-DFW is now in air QF22 DFW-MEL. It will be ZNM’s first visit to Sydney.

Conflicting info ... Under a pic of fully painted ZNN, Matt Cawby on 21 June in Paine Field Blog stated "ZB282 Qantas 787-9 VH-ZNN and ZE235 Turkish Airlines 787-9 TC-LLR were moved out of the 40-21 last night, the horizontal stabilizer fitting NOE rework is complete. VH-ZNN is scheduled for a delivery flight on June 24."

On reflection, since ZNN is yet to do a C flight, this is probably the flight on 24th, which if acceptable would make a 28th delivery possible.
