Got an email from Qantas about a booked flight change yesterday for travel I have in Dec.

QF 94/93

Leaves LAX 40 min earlier
Leaves MEL 20 min late

So looks like they will be turning the same plane around and flying it back to LAX and QF 9/10 will use the same plane as well.

I wonder if this will impact QF 108 from JFK? That's a tight transition at LAX now....

The QF107/108 JKF flights have been slightly adjusted to allow connections with the new QF93/94 times.
