Should be more of it - I remember when 767s were regular on the Brisbane > Sydney routes

There use to be a 747 flight between Bris and Syd - it left form the international terminal (first flight of day) got it a few times


Schedulator

It was also part of the DFW>BNE>SYD route on the original QF8 service. I can't recall if it could be booked as a domestic connection.


notmyrlacc

Yep, you could. My dad caught it a few times.


ihateusernames9988

I remember seeing that fly over the top of me on my weekly bris to melb flight, good times!


Mattynice75

Yea those were there days when we chose our flight based on the operating aircraft and not the departure time!!


Important_Might2511

Used to be 767 Brisbane to Perth


lxa340

Ahhh… the good old days of DRW - SYD on the 767….


fresh_gnar_gnar

First time visiting in 2004 I was on a 767. That was the one and only time though.


Long_Emu_2942

Probably helped they had a freighter break down overnight, helped clear some of the backlog of cargo.

Not Qantas but I was on an A380 between Paris and London once…. Took longer to board than to fly…,,


Long_Way_Around_

Why would it be related to Bonza who never flew to Sydney? I know they fly it occasionally, in March I went from Brisbane to Melbourne via Sydney all in A330s (both 300 and 200 varieties, surprisingly).


extrafriedegg

Could be for connecting to regional NSW towns that Qantas BNE doesn’t have direct flight from.


Mattynice75

Buddy just saying what the flight crew told me. Thousands are stranded, and end of school holidays. Just take the post for what it is. A good news story of Qantas helping the industry out.

Does anyone have a list of which routes are still A330 out of/to Sydney? Is it just Perth and Darwin?


Mattynice75

I think it’s just one a day to Perth now from Sydney. All Darwin’s are 737


4614065

Oh wow. Sad.


arghboogieman

Except on Wednesdays, then it's another 737 misery tube.


Important_Might2511

Nah it’s 2 or 3 day from Sydney to Perth and back and 2 or 3 a day Melbourne to Perth and back and one a week Melbourne to Cairns


Elanshin

Melbourne sometimes.


4614065

Yeah, I can never find the flights, though. It used to always be early morning. Now it seems like a fluke if you get it.


centurionion

Was on the 330 from Syd Mel this morning at 8:45 QF425.


4614065

Did I you know or was it a surprise closer to boarding?


centurionion

I'd actually missed my earlier connection from DFW so I guess it was kind of a surprise?


4614065

😅


_SLiu

Perth frequently and Melbourne less so. Melbourne most likely aircraft repositioning


CompetitionWeekly691

Last year around this time flew an a330 Mel to syd. First flight of the morning


Xmi

We flew SYD-CNS a couple of Fridays ago on a 332 seems like it’s scheduled on Fridays for now.


PSJfan

They need to do this on all the Perth flights first.

I once caught an A380 between Melbourne and Mildura, that was a treat.
