Qantas to Fly Brisbane-LAX direct
Australia's Qantas To Offer Nonstop Brisbane-LA Service by Lilly
Vitorovich; Dow Jones Newswires; February 12, 12:18 am ET SYDNEY -(Dow Jones)- Australia's Qantas Airways Ltd. said Thursday it will beef up the airline's services to the U.S. by commencing direct flights between Brisbane and Los Angeles. It is the first time any airline has offered nonstop scheduled services on the route, said the nation's flag carrier. Chief Executive Geoff Dixon said Qantas will operate three Boeing 747 nonstop Brisbane-Los Angeles services a week from June 14. The flights are in addition to Qantas' daily flights from Brisbane to Los Angeles via Auckland, and will take the number of services on the route to 10 a week. "These new services make it possible, for the first time ever, for American tourists to fly direct to the Sunshine State, and provide easier access to the many world-class tourist attractions throughout Queensland," Dixon said in a statement. "They also offer Queenslanders a more convenient way to get to the U.S.," he added. Qantas has significantly boosted capacity between Australia and the U.S. over the past six months, said Dixon. #### |
