Update

EAX has not yet arrived in Oz and is assumed to be still in Rayong.

Right engine problems that caused its grounding on 18th November appear to have been rectified and she was test flown on 30th Nov….but still not without issues.

Go here for details:

Eventual planned route form Rayong is believed to be Singapore – Bali – Broome – Mt Isa – Longreach – Brisbane.

Meanwhile, Cat ferry from Rand in South Africa to USA is imminent.
