What was old is now new again!!! Melbourne - Bangkok

It's interesting to see JQ starting this run. Wasn't that long ago it was a QF route. I can't believe QF was losing money considering the flow through to LHR.

MEL DXB must be flourishing

Long live the RED ROO

Smartest thing Joyce did was pulling out of Big Creek Airport.
Never could understand the rationale of that route.

BGK = Big Creek Airport in Belize in the Caribbean.

When did QF ever go there and why on earth would Jetstar now want to fly there?

Did he mean CGK? Although I can't find any evidence they do/will fly there?

JQ pulled out of CGK about a month ago, was operated by 3K on behalf of JQ.

Correct, all BKK operations changing from 330 to 787 metal.
