Qantas
Deserts Dubai |
Qantas
will reinstate its popular "kangaroo route"
to London via Singapore. Qantas' flagship
A380 service, QF1, will once again operate
as Sydney-Singapore-London from March next
year. In doing so, the national carrier will
cease all flights to Dubai.
Despite deserting Dubai, Qantas intends to
extend its alliance with Emirates for a
further five years. Qantas will still sell
codeshare tickets on Emirates services to
Europe via Dubai, and Qantas customers can
continue to earn and redeem points on
Emirates flights.
