Qantas confirms aircraft orders
Qantas confirmed aircraft orders with Airbus and Boeing to complete its jet fleet renewal.
It is buying a dozen Airbus A350s and 12 Boeing 787 Dreamliners.
The new jets will start arriving in 2027, Qantas said.
They will go toward replacing Qantas’ older Airbus A330 planes.
“The 787s offer enhanced efficiency, flexibility and passenger comfort to connect Australia and destinations around the world,” said Stan Deal, CEO of Boeing Commercial.
As a part of the deals, Qantas will get access to up to 500 million litres of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) per year.
This could start from 2028.
“SAF reduces lifecycle carbon emissions by up to 80% and is a key part of Qantas’ emissions reduction plan,” the airline said.
It comes as Qantas just posted a record profit of $2.47 billion.
