  • El Al will begin non-stop Melbourne flights in 2020

    Nov 28, 2019, 11:12 AM

    I recently saw a photo on Facebook of departure board at Melbourne Tullamarine in early 70s that showed a flight going to Tel Aviv. Wasn't Qantas but can't remember who. Anybody know?

  • Qantas eyes flights to India via Singapore, and non-stop too

    Nov 21, 2019, 11:48 AM

    Two words come to mind: Qantas Red! Qantas had plans before Emirates partnership to set up a hub in Singapore flying premium services around Asia using fleet of locally based 737s. Singapore was a great hub in 80s and 90s for Qantas with 767s flying from Australia then on to Bangkok, Hong Kong a...

    Where is this spare 787 coming from? Thought they were all used on long distance flights.

  • Qantas adds Airbus A321XLR to its fleet

    Jun 20, 2019, 06:04 AM

    Hopefully this will mean opening up of services from places like Canberra, Adelaide, Hobart, Townsville and Newcastle to Singapore and New Zealand.Interesting that Qantas is one of many major 737 operators who have announced orders for A321XLR this week.

  • Qantas boosts Sydney-Bali to an Airbus A330

  • One runway at Melbourne: why?

    Apr 06, 2019, 10:36 AM

    Used to work for ATC. Main factor is wind, not only at Tullamarine but wind at Esssendon as well as runways at both need to be paired for safe operations. Basically operates as one airport with 4 runways! North -Soth runway is much longer than east-west so is used by Internationals and bigger ...

  • Jetstar Boeing 787s being transferred to Qantas?

    Mar 22, 2019, 04:33 PM

    Unlikely they will operate out of Darwin as Qantas are in dispute with owners over their high charges. If Qantas are going to order A321LR better do it very quickly as Airlines will be flocking to Airbus for aircraft to replace cancelled 737max orders

  • Using Adelaide as an International transit point

    Mar 19, 2019, 02:06 PM

    How easy is it to transfer from domestic flight to International flight in Adelaide and vice versa?Was wondering if people have been using Adelaide as an International transit point rather than Sydney or Melbourne to avoid the delays at Immigration and Customs. Now that more airlines are using ...

  • Direct flights to Hawaii from Melbourne?

    Jan 26, 2019, 09:22 AM
