Ideal for retaking slots while waiting on new aircraft under a power by the hour lease though! Probably just a coincidence, although the flight did operate using the wrong rego….

Spotted VPE out of Fiji yesterday, cruising at 27000 to Honolulu, very unusual flights path for a 77W that’s for sure. Does anyone have any information on where it’s heading and or why so many stops?

From another forum:
Given plane is probably heading to the scrappers, it would have made no sense for the plane's owners to spend money on getting repairs done and instead they just chose a slower trip across the Pacific and the associated increase fuel burn.
