Anyone know the reason QF are sending a 767 to Maroochydore?

Might be and error Jason, I have QF1124 just arriving in Sydney from Melbourne (some times the ACARS is not reprogrammed correctly). VH-ZXC did Sydney - Cairns today, departimg at 1003 and arriving back at 1539.

Was your ACARS log from today.

Thanks for the response Grahame. Any idea as to why it was using the flt number 1124 instead of the even 4** number usually used on the MEL-SYD sectors, or was this also an error?

It just used QF1124 for the flight into Sydney, if it did MEL-MCY it would have to have been this morning, not sure why this filght number is being used.
