Thursday's Tiger Airways Melbourne to Mackay Flight Diverts to Brisbane Airport

For reasons unknown, Tiger Airways Airbus A320 VH-VNG, which was operating Tiger's scheduled TGW382 flight from Melbourne (Tullamarine) to Mackay, landed at Brisbane Airport on Thursday 17 January.

After spending just over an hour on the ground in Brisbane, VH-VNG departed Brisbane for Mackay as TGW8162.  After turning around, VH-VNG eventually departed Mackay as TGW383 for Tullamarine nearly 2½ hours late.

On Thursday 17 January, Tiger also operated A320 VH-VNK into Mackay flying the scheduled return service from and back to Sydney - TGW386/387.
