One of the quandaries I have had is why QANTAS is reinstating A380 services on QF93/94 MEL-LAX-MEL for only two weeks from 15/6/23 to 1/7/23. This will be on alternate days for a very short time in a non-holiday period involving just the one aircraft. A380 services are only scheduled to commence from MEL on a more permanent basis with two services per week from 29/10/23.
It looks as though it is to release a B789 to commence either JFK or FCO services from 14 and 17/6/23 respectively, until ZNN's scheduled delivery on 28/6/23.
Also, A380 services on SYD-HKG-SYD only run to 5/6/23 ex SYD, which leaves OQL or a refurbished A380 to operate from MEL. This begs the question of whether OQL will return to AUH for refurbishment and another A380 return to service shortly ex AUH.
