These days it's rare to see a Qantas widebody in Adelaide but here flight QF6043 from Fua'amotu International, Tonga is on final for Rw 23 about 1.4 km from the threshold. The importance and reason for this flight was to bring in the first 200 Pacific islanders to work in fruit growing areas as fruit pickers due to the lack of local workers. As at the time of writing a further 5 flights were expected at fortnightly intervals, the separation of flights to allow for the workers to complete 14 days in a quarantine facility before going to work due to Covid-19 restrictions.

Morning arrival onto Rw 23 of Jetstar flight 762 from Sydney. Jetstar occasionally, though not often, operates an A321 on the Sydney-Adelaide service. This was leading up to the Easter weekend and there may have been more than usual passenger numbers. This aircraft returned to Sydney a little later in the morning operating flight 763.

Pre-sunrise landing on Rw 23 of Singapore flight 279 from Singapore. This aircraft registration is in a group (9V-SMx) that had been regularly operating a circuit from Singapore to London return to Singapore then on to Adelaide bringing ex-pats home to Australia during the Covid-19 pandemic. These flights ordinarily arrive on Tuesday in Adelaide but this being a Thursday suggests either a change in flight patterns or an extra service.
