Route from Sydney to Darwin (Qantas)

picked mum up at Darwin last night from QF846.

she asked me why the route had changed. Obviously I have NFI.

So looking tonight QF846 has tracked from Syd to just south of Coonabarabran, over Walgett to east of Cloncurry and then turned left maybe 50kms north of Cloncurry tracking to Darwin. This i'm told is the track from last night

whereas J* are flying the same pair, their track is the one I'm familiar with, Syd, over Narromine, turn right over Nyngan, and track to Darwin from there.

weather? boredom, so lets try something new?, traffic? shorter?

Thanks.

PS She only knows this because she got a new fangled 738 with seat back IFE.
