  • Qatar Airways brings its A380 back to Perth

    Sep 13, 2022, 06:05 PM

    Exactly and Qatar have only 2 A380s left in storage, which will be used for the DOH-PER. London uses 2, Paris uses 1, Bangkok uses 2 and Sydney uses 2, (Perth will now use 2), 1 is used as spare (All 10 will be active by December). The only way for Melbourne to come in the mix is for Qatar to fre...

  • Qatar Airways brings its A380 back to Perth

    Sydney won't get a 2x daily flight because Melbourne is going to get it. The flight that goes to Canberra went via Sydney pre-pandemic but they have agreed to go via Melbourne instead. So Sydney/Perth 1x daily A380, while Melbourne will be 2x daily 77W. Makes sense.

    Not sure. Qatar added a second daily 77W flight to Melbourne from October 1, so i doubt they would get the A380. Seems like Perth has now overtaken Melbourne in the tourism industry. These A380s were flying to Melbourne pre-pandemic but seems very unlikely now.

  • Australia eases border rules for unvaccinated foreigners

    This will be good for airlines to increase capacity. I saw a Singapore Air A380 leave storage in Alice Springs to Singapore via Sydney. Seems as though they are re-activating more and more A380s and we could even get more SQ A380s flying to Australia. 

  • Qatar Airways’ A380 superjumbo comes soaring back to Sydney

    Not happy that Qatar don't even want to fly the A380 to Melbourne. I did MAN-DOH-MEL two months ago on QR 787-8 and 777 and it was good, but I'd like to try A380 on Qatar.

  • A380 for QF93/94 Melbourne-Los Angeles

    Anyone have any idea on when Qantas will resume A380 flights between Melbourne and LA? It was rumoured to reappear last year in December. I've checked flights between Melbourne-LA and it still shows 787 for the entire year (2023). I plan on flying to Toronto from Melbourne via LAX in September an...

  • Melbourne Airport T2 Depature Security Opening Time?

    Aug 29, 2022, 04:11 PM

    What time does security open for international flights out of MEL? I will be taking the 5.15am Emirates flight to Dubai and have been informed that check-in will open at 1.15am

  • A380s back to Australia

    Jul 03, 2022, 07:25 PM

    With Australia qualifying to Word Cup, it seems as though Qatar is increasing capacity on its Australian routes. Anyone know when Qatar might reinstate the A380 to other Australian cities like Melbourne, Perth or Brisbane? Sydney had the return of the A380 on June 1st.

  • VA international codeshare flights

    Jun 21, 2022, 05:15 PM

    I'm not sure. I tried looking for a VA codshare flight from Melbourne to Sydney then on to Paris with Qatar Airways but seems as though the two airlines aren't selling them yet.
