China Eastern Flight on Thursday 12/10

I was shooting from Hobe most of the day on Thursday, I noticed the China Eastern Flight sitting at the gate, I was hopping it was a delayed flight from the night before, but it never went out, well at least during daylight. Anybody have any info on this flight?

My understanding is that the flight comes in around midnight, does a quick turnaround...and leaves...

It parked at T4 for a while, and now it's at T1...

I know the regular schedule, but this aircraft was at the gate all day Thursday. Just found it kind of odd.

Kind of odd to see the plane sit at the gate of such a long time. If it was a technical problem I'd imagine it would be towed to a remote stand.

But then again, may be China Eastern got money to burn! :mrgreen:

ps. I don't think there was ever a shot of China Eastern A346 at JFK since their flights arrive and depart at wee hours of night.
