VH-OJQ on domestic route today
Just noticed that VH-OJQ operated QF577 to Perth this afternoon and is now on finals as QF566.
Very rare for a -400 to operate domestic flights. Any particular reason for this one? |

The flight was nowhere near full in or out of Perth so was most likely due to aircraft availability, several aircraft went U/S today.

Thanks Adam, thought it might be due to high load but obviously not.
Nice experience for pax as more leg room etc. Back in 1997 I took advantage of the Qantas 'red tag' specials ($198 return SYD-MEL) where they would fill up empty seats on 744's for those flights that came to SYD then went to MEL and vv. From memory I flew down on QF12 and back on QF11. In both cases the a/c were quite empty and there would have been about 50+ 'domestic' pax. Got the full service plus you actually went through the International transit area and all the usual shops/bars etc (but no duty free obviously). Your boarding pass was stamped 'DOM' so it stood out from the 'genuine' International pax. |
