someone complain about CX rescheduling his flight. suppose to depart 23/sept to KIX, return on 28/Sept CX change departure to 29/Sept, but maintaining the return as 28/Sept. wonder why CX didn’t straight reschedule the return flight as well? Wait for pax to call in? |
And we are now at 3hrs 20mins and counting….. Thank god for IP phone - at this point I have given up caring about anything, and just seeing how long it will actually be… That is until I go to bed…

Just came here to wish folks the best in managing their disruptions.
I don’t recall the airport being shut for so long- must be really bad- stay safe folks! (I need to call CX to make non-pressing changes to a CX issued RTW- guess I’ll just wait for things to blow over) |

1. QF124 Y redemption 23/9 ZQN 07:05 SYD 08:30 2. CX138 J redemption 23/9 SYD 21:50 HKG 05:10 3. (When Ragasa track started to become known) CX100 Y redemption 23/9 SYD 14:05 HKG 21:30 (2) and (3) were both cancelled at 15:30 HKT. My preference was to rebook (2) into 24/9 CX138, but had no luck calling in from 15:30-01:30 even with one Kingking, two Google Voice call out devices and doing a bunch of hacks to try to get through. One Kingking call was 6 hours long before it dropped. I was automatically rebooked while I was calling: (3) Got rebooked into 23/9 SYD 10:10 HKG 17:50 (last CX flight before shutdown?) (2) Got rebooked into 27/9 QF405 SYD 06:25 MEL 08:00 27/9 QF29 MEL 10:20 HKG 17:55 Rebooked (2) was a non-starter, I’m simply going to refund that segment. Rebooked (3) is a good arrival time but reduces my connection in SYD from 6 hours to 100 minutes. While possibly doable, there’s no buffer for anything going wrong before getting to CX departure desk at T-60 eg not even an extended Customs inspection. When I explained my circumstances to the J check in in QF ZQN, she kindly checked me in, despite two separate tickets. https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...92e8925be.jpeg |

Flight radar showing quite a few planes on their way back to HKG from a far.
1 with in Asia as far as I can tell. Would those familiar with CX expect BLR (Bangalore) to HKG on friday night to operate as normal? Tonight and tomorrow are cancelled already |

No plane flew to CRK and MNL? Weather was uneventful in these 2 airports despite typhoon hitting the northernmost part of the country.

why would they want to position their aircraft in airports that are as crowded as the EDSA/C5 intersection.

What's the status at the call center now? Back to normal wait times or still ages due to typhoon backlog?
|
15 minutes yesterday, probably less today.
