Official schedule changes have been released by EK for MEL:
EK 405:
Departing Melbourne at 02:25
Arriving Singapore at 08:15
Departing Singapore at 09:40
Arriving Dubai at 13:00
EK 404:
Departing Dubai at 21:15
Arriving Singapore at 08:50+1
Departing Singapore at 10:25
Arriving Melbourne at 19:35
Latest Rumour is that EK’s MEL-SIN will leave around 2am local. Not unexpected when you look at how inefficient the current timing is considering a 777 is parked for close to 17 hours on the ground.
Jump to postNoticed that there is a Qatari A380 parked in the QF hangers this morning in MEL. Anyone know what’s the go?

Cant remember the MEL flight change completely aside from that the SIN-MEL will now arrive MEL just after midnight instead of in the morning.

EK looks to be changing their flight times out of Melbourne, I'd expect an announcement very soon.

QF446 is currently returning back to MEL. Wouldn't it of been quicker to divert to Canberra given the proximity?
Unsurprisingly Emirates is now denying boarding to those traveling on a Qatari passport. I assume this would also start to affect all other airlines operating into the UAE.

Jump to postEK407 will go via PER tonight on its way to DXB. Unkown if QF will do the same although I assume it would unless they've got a different agreement worked out. Regional flights to Asia seem to be unaffected at the moment
