Qantas has confirmed world first non stop services between Sydney and London from October 2027 on the Kangaroo Route. The airline unveiled its first Airbus A350 1000ULR in Qantas livery as part of Project Sunrise.
The launch marks a step in long haul aviation development. Qantas Group CEO Vanessa Hudson confirmed the route. The aircraft resulted from years of work to address Australia’s distance challenges.
The service operates without stops from Australia’s east coast. It connects Sydney directly to London. Passengers gain new travel options on this route.
Vanessa Hudson shared “Qantas was built on the belief that Australia’s distance from the rest of the world should never stand in the way.”
