The Qantas Experience

The world's most experienced airline

We've been flying longer, continuously, than any other airline. 89 years. And with experience comes excellence; a quality you'll notice in everything we do. The superior comfort of our First and Business Lounges. The warmth of Australian hospitality. And onboard features that ensure you'll relax and enjoy the flight.

The Qantas Experience

Lounges

If there's one thing we've learned, it's that comfort on the ground is as important as comfort in the air. So our First Lounges in both Sydney and Melbourne promise kerbside valets, restaurants for pre-flight dining, and even spas for First guests.

Skybed

And we've been reinventing it ever since. With our heritage in long distance travel, we've always ensured our seats are both comfortable and long. And our latest is also our longest. Called Skybed, it's an amazing 198cm (6'6") so you can really stretch out and relax.

Our Crew

Skytrax, the world leader in airline passenger surveys, has voted us one of the world's top five airlines, five years in a row. It's an achievement that recognises the many skills of our flight crews. Not just their training and service. But also, more importantly, a warmth that could only come from one of the friendliest countries on earth.

Long Distance

The heritage of Qantas lies in long distance travel. But while Australia is home, we fly to many destinations around the world. So no matter how far you travel, you'll enjoy superior service from departure to arrival.

Awards

As an airline we aim for excellence, so we're proud when it's recognised. Especially in areas that matter most to our guests. Like top 5 airline, 5 years running. Best inflight entertainment. Or the recent accolades for our wine list, from the prestigious Cellars in the Sky Awards.
