How QF779 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for QF779 across the MEL and PER boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read — pattern not clear yet. Only 1 completed leg so far: left right on schedule but landed about 16 min early. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how QF779 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
