I saw that too, VH-VBY on DJ829. The flight crew must be feeling lucky


Regarding the Qantas staff who would have worked on the many international and domestic flights which are cancelled today; do they still get a day's worth of pay despite not working today, given they are on an annual salary, or do they go unpaid as a result of the circumstances?

What Alan also failed to mention was that Qantas was very happy to transfer thousands of its customers onto Air New Zealand and other airlines’ services, which seems a strange thing to do for your customers if you have concerns about the safety of the airspace.Rob Fyfe

Not a bad point to make. Wonder what Alan's response would be to that.
