I was out there until 10:30 and when I left the A380 hadn't shown up, only a 744. CX, KE, OZ, Etihad, Air Tahiti, UA hadn't arrived either.

Interesting any enlightenment??
I am surprised that the united website doesn't show anything more that "Flight Cancelled", and I do agree. Maybe this flight wasn't even going to fly, without fog. Otherwise, if it did it could have been like all the others and diverted..

UA863 is showing on Flightaware as flight status "Scheduled" for 13/5 so I don't think it took off at all. -OJF QF12 is showing as terminating in BNE too.. as QF6001 has been canned looks like she might be operating the QF175 today.

Alex, looks like it's still operating though. Sydney Airport website showing CX110 ETD 4.15pm

The ATC people would be having fun this morning!
I believe QF42 is from Jakarta (CGK. The return flight from Manila would be QF20.
