At Adelaide Airport to launch Qatar Airways’ direct daily flights to and from Adelaide, Mr Bignell’s message was clear, though he stopped shy of using the word “boycott”.
Maybe QANTAS will ban Leon Bignell :D

Cheers

Here's some of mine. I can't remove the fine noise, but that could be the indoor/through glass effects.

Anyone catch it as it took off last night? Was shortly before 10pm and was then followed by Emirates.

Evening all,

Qatar will reduce to 6 a week between August 2nd and September 27th. Tuesday flight is cancelled during this period. This is due to Qatar having a shortage of A350's (They are 5 behind in their new deliveries),

Here are Some of my photos from the first 3 'QR914/915' flights.

Day 1 (Inaugural Flight)

I got slightly different dates: 01AUG – 30SEP minus the Tuesdays in between. 02AUG and 27SEP are both Tuesdays. Close enough I guess.

Nice photos. Good onya.

Cheers

I really don't like their color scheme.
But has anyone noticed that on the tail section of their logo, the grey bit inside looks like it's a hand giving the middle finger? :mrgreen:

Not sure what to make of this proposal for the airport hotel, but it looks to be a rydges branded property. Can anyone confirm the seriousness of this?
