BNE & MEL will see a lot of FJ A330s in place of 737 maxs.

In short term to NAN

ex BNE
2 x A330s a week(from 0) & the 2300ish red eye has become an 0210 departure & other Thu red eye has disappeared.

ex MEL
2 x A330s a week(from 0) & all flights depart 0025-0050

ex ADL
2 nonstops a week, seemed to have become 1, so presume pax booked on other will now fly ADL/NAN via BNE, SYD or MEL

ex SYD
presume, there might be some shuffling with new QF service & JQ

So with some flights out of BNE & MEL suddenly having over 100 extra seats, what will FJ do to try & fill them ? Offer more $800 return fares to USA ?
