Qantas to launch four times weekly Perth-Paris service from 12-Jul-2024

Qantas Airways announced (29-Oct-2023) plans to launch Perth-Paris service from 12-Jul-2024, with Boeing 787 aircraft. The 17 hour flights will be operated four times weekly initially, decreasing to three times weekly from mid Aug-2024. Qantas Group CEO Vanessa Hudson stated: "Our direct flights to London and Rome have been hugely popular and Paris is the next most requested destination, so we know the demand for this service will be strong as well". The service will add over 75,000 seats between Australia and Europe per year. The launch will coincide with the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games and European summer.
