Perhaps Emirates should consider carrying more fuel on their AKL-MEL leg of EK407 during the winter months?
Regardless, its has been interesting to learn about these procedures, so thankyou.

Thanks Adam, you asked the questions I wondered about. Still very strange everyone else went in bar that aircraft. I did notice 16 had been lowered to CAT1, was that a deciding factor?
Just nice to be able to access sites like flghtradar24.
