Good Morning All. Got on this morning to continue the Kangeroo Club Flights and can seem to find any of the flights down there on the schedule. I did the YSSY-YAYE-YSSY flight yesterday but it wont show up today.
I also noticed that the Austrailia'n Airlines dont show up on my List of Airports Still to Visit. Just wondering if this was a glitch in the schedule or a change of some type.

Thanks, Deryl

Deryl, I was working on the Carolina Club and there was an airport not showing on the schedule at all (the last I needed to complete the flight). I was told that the schedule revolves, so there could be a stretch of days that the flight is not offered. Well, I ended up calling Delta's gate at the actual airport and there was a recording that Delta no longer offers services to the airport and DVA ended up removing it as a requirement.

Thanks Paul. The issue I had was no flights showing up out of Sydney. I know some flight are not flown daily but zero flight out of that airport would indicate a problem either with the schedule or the search function of the flight finder IMO.

There's a problem with the historic flights, but I just searched flights out of YSSY and see 31 flights.

Thanks David, After totally restarting everything on my end I now see that as well. However, when I used the flight finder before all I had to do was to enter a blank in the airline and enter either a departure or arrival airport. (When doing accomplishments we only have the airport code and not the airline or airlines that go to/from there). In many cases the result would return multiple options for the airline. For example there could be a Delta flight as well as a Northwest flight on the same city pair. That part is still not working as it requires a specific airline entry in order to produce a result. It's not a huge problem as we have a pretty good idea of what airlines cover a particular area but it does result in a lot of guessing and multiple attempts to find the flight required.

Thanks Again for your attention to this matter.

I just used Find a Flight and did as you said. Only entered YSSY at the departure airport, everything else was blank, and I see a result set with multiple options for several airlines. I see several VA flights, MU, and GA flights plus historical flights from VAH, KLH, and PAH. What airport are you using for departure?

Additional Issue. Flight finder shows VA1165 Leg 1 ERJ-190 Sydney Australia (YSSY) - Coffs Harbour Australia (YCFS) 09:15 NSWT 10:20 NSWT 01:05 1 275 mi.
ACARS will not take YCFS as a valid destination.

Thanks,
Deryl

David, I did another restart and tries the exact same flight again and it came up so not sure what was up there. Tried several of the airports still left to do and they worked as well.
I appreciate your looking into it....Maybe a browser issue on my end but not sure as I had restarted a few times.

Glad it's working for you now. I think you're right, perhaps a page refresh or some other browser issue. Happy Thanksgiving Day!
