However back of the barmat figures. 200+ punters is around 20T
Empty weights for a 321 are around 55T. (From memory they are a bit heavier than that). Landing weight from memory was around 77T.
Chuck on 3 tonne for your arrival fuel and there’s your landing weight.
You wouldn’t want to go Melbourne min fuel. Add the 40 min traffic holding that was NOTAM’d yesterday and you’re out of luck.
But it’s the same for any flight, the landing weight is going to be approximately the same. Just because it’s a short flight doesn’t make it any heavier
