I'm actually stunned (and happy for) mainline operating these routes. But what was even more strange was the MEL-CFS sector operated by QF rather than JQ as a 'leisure' destination.
Whilst not operated by mainline, the Sydney-Hervey Bay route looks like it will be 717s with J seats (I'm only assuming this as the all economy 71s couldn't realistically be rotated through Sydney).
Maybe this will be the beginning of QF cannabilising JQ routes.
