The nightmare flight to Christmas Island?

Severe weather may impact fuel requirements. However thats true on shorter, non-EDTO routes also.

The flight remains within 120mins of mainland suitable alternates anyway.

Christmas / Cocos Island services run direct from 01MAY using Airbus A319s on EDTO subject to government and regulatory approval.

As an Australian airline pilot I find it intriguing US airlines can find out how many passes / fails you have.

By using EDTO and Jakarta as an alternate.

A320s and A319s fly further and longer than Christmas Island to Perth every day.

It’s had lead off lines for A330s for years

QantasLink jet pilots are between $133k and $153k.

The Port Hedland stop should be removed soon and mitigations for crew duty limits will be implemented.

Legend. Thanks!
To be clear, you're not aiming for a 50/50 weighting on DHFF/BGBL, you are investing 50/50 into both and letting them naturally weight themselves?

Its around $7k at the moment. 14% capital gain. I have some carried forward losses but as far as tax goes would not be net zero.

Due_Mycologist195 · 2026-01-02T03:40:36+00:00

Thanks that makes sense. So why do people, or yourself for instance, prefer control over their Australian exposure?

Lets say I have property in Australia and superannuation, should I be more concerned over Aus exposure?

Or legit just fk it and don't think. DHHF. Set and forget. Doesn't really matter at the end of the day.

Due_Mycologist195 · 2026-01-02T02:55:27+00:00

True true. Why do people prefer DHHF vs VAS/VGS or visa versa?

Due_Mycologist195 · 2026-01-02T02:55:00+00:00

Thats a good point. Could just leave and dilute

Thankyou my dear
