Melbourne to Mumbai


I am flying to Mumbai tomorrow with Australia's flag carrier Qantas. I fly to Sydney first then connect 2 hours later for a 14 and a half hour direct flight to Mumbai.

The Age today had an article about the hubbing of international Qantas flights out of Sydney. It is a fair enough business decision to do this, but I would have thought Melbourne is big enough for more direct flights. It seems that Indian Airlines thinks so as they will soon be operating direct flights from New Delhi to Melbourne.

The direct flights will need to wait till 777-200LR planes are delivered by Boeing.
