Where do you see this, Kain? At the moment the DJ website is showing 3 or 4 MEL-CBR flights, even less than currently.

Hi Steve,

On the timetable, not the booking engine. I guess the updates are still being loaded, and for the first time ever the timetable is infront! MEL-CBR services depart MEL at 7:00 (EMJ), 8:15, 13:30, 15:25, 16:30 and 18:15 is now daily (used to be Thu,Fri,Sun only). Have a look and see if you find more new services.

Kain yes you are quite correct.

Also from late Aug, almost all CBR-ADL/MEL/SYD/BNE/OOL flts are E-Jets. BNE-MKY 2 daily E90. All BNE-ROK's. 2 BNE/ADL flights and the BNE/HTI flight are E90s. Aswell as MEL/HBA, look out for some extra MEL/ADL flights.

Usually such schedule increases are trumpteted via press releases, but I guess so much is happening so fast, they can't keep up! Just out of curiousity, are new schedules not deemed sufficiently important as to notify the ASX?

What happened to the 20 or so new routes DJ was going to open up with the Embraers? I can only think of SYD-ABX-SYD & SYD-CFS-SYD & SYD-CBR-SYD.

SYD-CFS-SYD already existed before the Embraers. I think you're thinking of SYD-PPQ-SYD.

So where are the 737's going that are being replaced?

SYD-PER increasing by 2 daily (now 5 daily) and BNE-PER going from daily to double daily, and an extra SYD-BNE at least. 1 of the extra HBA-MEL is a 737 (I'm pretty sure as it used to go HBA-ADL but that service has been retimed), and Radi suggests that there are extra ADL-MEL too.

It would be nice if they announced these, as I'm not sure how accurate the aircraft type is on the DJ schedules. E.g. it says CBR-BNE is 5 daily 73G but I'm sure they must all be E190. Others such as BNE-ROK, MKY, ADL, HTI say 73G but Radi is saying that they are E190 which is more believable to me anyway.

Perhaps someone from DJ can give a summary of the correct information?

BNE-SYD goes from 21 a day weekdays to 24 a day by 1 sep

Also BNE-MEL goes to 12 a day up from 11.

With all these schedule increases a total increase of 8 a day out of Brissie by Virgin takes it to 71 a day on weekdays which for the first time means more jet flights than Qantas has out of here.

With CBR-ADL going to an E-jet and being a flight that does quite well, any chance of a second daily service in the morning (here's hoping...)
