The airline, one of China’s “big four”, will switch permanently from five weekly flights to seven from 15 June, creating an annual capacity of almost 100,000 seats per year between Brisbane and Shanghai. It comes as China Southern prepares to fly twice daily year-round from 30 March.
Launching on 14 December, the route will see the Qantas codeshare partner fly twice per week return between Sydney and Papeete using its 787-9 Dreamliner fleet, reinstating a service that operated prior to 2009.
The four-minute video, which premiered on 28 February, is filmed mostly on board aircraft and focuses more on Qantas’ reputation for safety, with scenes also including an opening sequence on the runway at Western Sydney Airport and shots inside Qantas training centres.
Qantas’ average gender pay gap for 2024-25 was 41.7 per cent for total pay, compared to 44.8 per cent at Virgin, with a median gap of 35.7 per cent and 35.34 per cent respectively. Across the whole Australian private sector, women receive on average 21.1 per cent less in total pay than men.
The low-cost airline group will end its flights from the NT capital to Bali and Kuala Lumpur on 28 April citing “commercially unsustainable” passenger numbers, and will instead ramp up flights from Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, and Adelaide.
Launching on 27 October and running until March 2027, the route will operate three times per week using A321neo LRs, adding more than 30,000 seats over the summer peak. The news comes after Jetstar last year carried more than 700,000 customers across the Tasman, up 9 per cent on 2024.
