Yesterday, runway 01 was in use again, and with Brisbane experiencing severe storms for three nights in a row, we saw some late-night diversions. Each night around 10 pm (12:00 UTC), a Qatar 777-300 (VA16, operating for Virgin Australia) and an Emirates 777-300 (EK430) usually arrive. On Tuesday night, the storms were so intense that both aircraft diverted to Melbourne (MEL/YMML). Sydney (SYD/YSSY) wasn't an option because of curfew from 11.00 pm.
Yesterday morning at 4:30 am (18:30 UTC), Emirates returned from Melbourne, followed by Qatar at 10:15 am (00:15 UTC). We also had a Jetstar 787-8 ferry flight. As I was tied up with other commitments yesterday, my daughter kindly spent the morning taking these photos for me—huge thanks to her for a job well done.
