Default QF A332s on MEL-PER route

Howdy geeks

Good news... effective 01JUL A332s will ply the skies between MEL & PER in lieu of B743 a/c.

Ops QF485/802/481/648 MEL-PER-MEL-PER-MEL.

SYD-PER remains double daily B743 ops for the time being.

Regards

Luke/PER

Thanks for the solid info Luke,

Now to get a bit of reliability back on the route! I know they are going U/S every second but I will be sad to see the 743's finally go when they do.

Cheers

You could probably average it out at 2 per day with the amount of times they are U/S and they send the 744 instead!

Does this mean the next 332 will be delivered in Domestic configuration, as rumoured? Any more news on that front?

I think a 743 will be doing some 330 flying. BNE SIN PER SIN BNE as QFs 51, 72, 71, 52 and a random one or two QF82 SIN ADL SYD. between 14/04/08 and 05/07/08

Correct - it will position SYD-BNE-SIN as QF51/14APR then operate daily shuttles SIN-PER-SIN as QF72/QF71 before operating QF82/10MAY SIN-ADL-SIN.

Gareth - A332 will be in dometic config - 38J/265Y.

Regards

Luke/PER
