V Australia to fly to South Africa, Thailand
V Australia launches fares to Thailand and South Africa | Cheap flights

--

Hi all,

I've been a long time lurker, but this is the first time I have posted. How can V Australia fly from Australia to SA in 777's without violating ETOPS? As far as I know, South African flies A340's on its Joberg-Perth route. I know SIA fly from Singapore - Joberg with twinjets, however that is because they use Diego Garcia as an emergency landing site. Could V be flying Aust - Thailand - Joberg?

Can anyone shed any light on this?
