Yes. I saw one at BNE a few weeks ago. However it will be rare until they get the next A330.

The one in BNE a few weekends ago was a one off to cater for the Wallabies fans who wanted to head across to PER for the game v the Spiringboks. Interestingly all of the J class seats were sold which suggests there is a market for the A330 to fly regularly from BNE-PER. I too suspect we will have to wait until the 6th A330 delivery in April 2013 before this route is serviced by an A330.

Wow - a footy special. Thanks for that. The A330s are great, they give you that 'international' feeling even when they used to ply MEL-SYD in the mornings. Will miss that.
