This time have gone ADL/MEL/SING/Shanghai 10500km 2 stops 14.5 hours flight time. Approx 19 hours total.
Not sure if they have done this because the AFL have made them use Virgin (code share with Singapore Airlines) or because Cathay Pacific pulled out of sponsoring? Either way, that extra stop/6 hours is just unnecessary.
Didn’t China Southern sponsor them for awhile also?
Obviously the timing didn’t suit for the direct ADL-SIN flight?
