Have you got a source for that at all?
So why is United flying at all? Surely that isn't profitable. (The cargo makes up the rest hey?)
Right now the only seat available is about a week out and is $3333. Any idea if I can jumpseat...to avoid the 50 pax limit?
Start back in Aust mil on 31 Jul. (Dual citizen)

plus you have to do all your visa info on your own but as you said you are a dual citizen so no big deal.
I just use flightaware to find an idea of the flight number and times. They are a great and easy option.

Arrived in SYD on Kalitta about a week ago (I have a right to enter Australia btw).
Since Atlas suspended international jumpseating, I was limited to Kalitta, great crew by the way.
Australia Border Force chick was mean as hell, questioning me why I was taking a cargo flight instead of pax carrier. She insisted I take a pax carrier back to the U.S but I don't see any directive from The Australian government explicitly forbidding jumpseating. May be they are dying to get your $100-ish departure tax.
Upon arrival, the crew went their own way to the hotel, I was escorted to go through the immigration and I was literally the only one in the terminal.
NSW police showed up and brought me to a quarantine hotel for 14 nights.
Food is very decent, the menu changes every day but you are allowed to order groceries and one uber eats per day.
7 more nights to go
