Default Queens visit late October
It's been widely reported the queen has snubbed Sydney as part of her 10 day tour here I'n late oct-24th onwards I think.

But- for those spotters I'n Mel/CBR/Bne- will she likely be using a chartered BA 744 or something else?

Matt,

I'm not sure that she snubbed Sydney, I suspect she had no choice. They may use a 774 but Long haul Royal Flights r normally done with 772.

Once in Australia the RAAF is responsible for Transporting the Royal Family I do believe.

As many others have mentioned very likely to be BA 777-200 and will be transported by RAAF in Australia so sadly this event will not be very big for special movements.
