How QF849 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for QF849 across the DRW and PER boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read — pattern not clear yet. Only 1 completed leg so far: left a little late (~13 min) but landed about 8 min early. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how QF849 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
