Qantas continues to grow its global network with new routes from Perth to Auckland and Johannesburg. These services begin in December 2025 and strengthen Perth as a key international hub. Consequently, Qantas adds over 150,000 seats annually, supporting both tourism and economic growth.
Additionally, these direct flights improve access to New Zealand and South Africa through Perth. They also connect seamlessly with partner networks, allowing travelers to reach more global cities easily. Qantas uses Airbus A330 aircraft for these routes to ensure comfort and efficiency.
Meanwhile, Qantas upgrades its long-haul network by boosting Dreamliner services to the United States. Starting October 2025, daily Brisbane–Los Angeles flights will offer more premium seating options. Moreover, during peak season, Qantas coordinates with American Airlines to meet high demand.
In parallel, Qantas increases Melbourne–Dallas Dreamliner flights to daily service during the summer. Then, in February 2026, the Brisbane–Los Angeles route resumes daily operations. These steps ensure continued U.S. connectivity for Australian travelers.
As part of a broader strategy, Qantas reallocates Jetstar’s aircraft to Asia and boosts Hawaii service. From late October 2025, Qantas will fly from Sydney to Honolulu up to six times weekly. This change keeps Hawaiian destinations accessible while aligning with high-demand travel trends.
In January 2026, Qantas also brings back the flagship A380 on the Sydney–Dallas route. This move adds capacity and upgrades the onboard experience. As a result, Qantas enhances luxury options for long-haul passengers.
Travelers can already book these flights online. By expanding routes and upgrading services, Qantas reinforces its position as Australia’s top international carrier. The airline remains focused on growth, comfort, and global access.
