QF6051 - What Gives?
 

Currently in FR24 there's QF6051 operating from Dubai to an unknown destination and QF6053 operating from Brisbane to an unknown destination. Both are A380s. Does anyone know what these flights are doing?

Lloyd mentioned these in the BNE thread under Australia / NZ industry. QF6051 is a SYD-BNE-DXB-LHR charter which departed on Sunday 23/8 and QF6053 is a SYD-BNE-LAX charter which departed this morning (Monday 24/8). OQJ and OQA are the operating aircraft, respectively. Consequently, no QF1 scheduled yesterday and no QF17 scheduled today (and today's QF11 operates on B744).

Thanks very much!

Apparently both Hillsong Church charters?

Damn...hate to be a poor church.....

I suspect it's the normal church customer that charters the A380s, with one each to England and the U.S. over the past few years, not Hillsong.

One might say it's a bit "Exclusive"

Haha I dare say being able to charter not one, but two A380s does make you a little 'exclusive'! Does anyone know why BNE (as opposed to SYD as it has been in previous years)??

Ha ha .... Surely the ultimate oxymoron ..

Exclusive was referring to the client who chartered the A380's. :)
