This appears to be the weekly situation for the Qantas 787-9 fleet, now the Federal Government's priorities have been set ... five rotations each out of Melbourne and Brisbane. Four each to Auckland and Hong Kong, & one each to Los Angeles and London Heathrow.

Melbourne based flights ...
Sunday : a QF151/QF156 MEL-AKL-MEL rotation; and the QF9 MEL-PER-LHR sectors of a QF9/QF10 rotation.
This latter flight is using the International Terminal T1 and not the Qantas Terminal T3 at Perth for the stop over, albeit Gate 50 which is a dual use gate on the Virgin T1 Domestic wing.
Monday : a second QF151/QF156 rotation and a QF29/QF30 MEL-HKG-MEL rotation.
[The return QF30 sector last week was delayed overnight with an early Tuesday morning departure.]
Wednesday : first sector of QF10 departs LHR
Thursday : 2nd sector of QF10 departs PER
Friday : the QF29 sector of a QF29/QF98 MEL-HKG-BNE rotation
Saturday : the QF30 sector of a QF97/QF30 BNE-HKG-MEL rotation (arrives MEL early Sunday morning)

Brisbane based flights ...
Sunday : the QF16 return sector of a QF15/QF16 BNE-LAX-BNE rotation arrives early in the morning
Wednesday : a QF97/QF98 BNE-HKG-BNE rotation
Thursday : a QF119/QF126 BNE-AKL-BNE rotation and the QF15 sector of a BNE-LAX-BNE rotation
Friday : the QF98 sector of the QF29/QF98 MEL-HKG-BNE rotation (arrives BNE in early hours of Saturday); and the QF16 sector of the QF15/QF16 BNE-LAX-BNE rotation departs LAX
Saturday : a second QF119/QF126 BNE-AKL-BNE rotation; and the QF97 sector of the QF97/QF30 BNE-HKG-MEL rotation.

Note also that last week ZNE and ZNI swapped between MEL & BNE via the Thursday MEL-HKG-BNE and Friday BNE-HKG-MEL rotations respectively.
