yeah it was crazy, Virgins Phuket and Adelaide flights diverted to KGI, as well as multiple QF B737s and B717s.

Thai's A330 started diverting to ADL then came back to PER after the fog started to clear.

1 VA and 2 QF 737s ended up in GET!!! The VA plane then went tech!

I think Tiger may have gone to GET too?

But the award for A+ effort goes to QF7333 (i think?) - VH-XME. Missed on Perth ex MEL, diverted to KGI. Then came back for another go and diverted to GET! Poor guys!
