Thomson 757 at Cairns today

[Jarden S]

We had 4 QF 767s between 11.10 and 12.40 today an extra one as usually have 3 only one each from BNE, SYD and MEL. Anyone know what the 4th 767 was doing?

Hi Jarden,

Great photos mate. I also noticed the extra QF 767 to CNS yesterday as well. By my acars, the 767 ops were;

VH-OGJ = QF924/925 SYD-CNS-SYD
VH-OGO = QF782/649 BNE-CNS-BNE
VH-OGB = QF922/923 SYD-CNS-SYD
VH-OGN = QF702/703 MEL-CNS-MEL

Cheers,
Dave.

That would have been VH-VYG operating QF921 to SYD. NSW are still on school holidays with kids returning on Monday 11th Oct, so I think extra capacity has been put on to move the holiday makers.

However, VYG is interesting. It seems VYG operated QF784 from BNE to CNS on Thursday arriving CNS about 1615, but it must have then stayed on the ground until Friday when it operated QF921.
