So if I booked for June PER-SYD-PER for 36,000*.8=28800, then changed it to when I really want to travel (July) would it be +5000 = 33800 or would they change it to 36000+5000? Is it worth it for 2200 points?

Limited 743 ops. on QF25/6 have begun!
Thursday 27th April 2006
Qantas 747-338 'VH-EBV' is operating MEL-AKL-LAX [QF25] tonight. However, due to payload restrictions out of AKL, -EBV will operate the Auckland to Los Angeles sector via Honolulu.
Just a reminder also, today marks the introduction of 743s on QF 25/6 on THU/SAT flights until early June.

Do the pax have to remain on-board at HNL? Or do they undertake immigration and customs during the HNL transit and have a domestic arrival into LAX?

QF 9/MEL-SIN-LHR/3 MAY 2006
Due to a problem with the 744's #2 engine and as a result, a rejected takeoff, ETD is now 11pm tonight. QF 9 usually departs at 3.30pm each day. Ouch
EDIT: QF 9's departure has been delayed further. ETA is now 12.40am. I can imagine PAX are fuming...
QF 583/SYD-PER/2 MAY 2006
Due to maintenance issues with a particular 743 [namely VH-EBW], VH-OJB [2-Class 744] operated QF 583 from Sydney to Perth last night. Skybeds would had made for a nice flight to PER

Update regarding QF 009 on 3 MAY 2006 - MEL-SIN-LHR.
Scheduled Departure: 03 MAY 15.30pm
Actual Departure: 04 MAY 01.53am
Of course people were fuming as QF weighed up the idea of 'hotelling' or waiting for aircraft #2 engine to be fixed....
There are reports circulating, suggesting that the pax. got so rowdy the police had to be called. This could be utter *rap and someone could be spewing rubbish, although it wouldn't surprise me if they were indeed called

Apparently Australian Airlines 763 "VH-OGJ" operated both QF115 BNE-AKL and QF134 AKL-MEL today. If correct, I wonder what procedure was in place for J Class passengers?
