00:00Qantas has announced it will soon operate the world's first non-stop services from
00:04Sydney to London beginning in October 2027.
00:08The airline unveiled its first Airbus A350-1000ULR which has been manufactured in Toulouse and
00:17is specifically designed with a 20,000 litre fuel tank.
00:21The Airbus seats 238 passengers across its four cabins and can fly more than 16,000 kilometres
00:27for up to 22 hours without stopping to refuel.
00:32Qantas has been flying between Sydney and London since 1947 with the original Kangaroo route
00:38taking four days and requiring seven stops in Darwin, Singapore, Calcutta, Karachi, Cairo,
00:46Castel Benito and Rome.
00:49The new non-stop flights are expected to cut at least four hours from the overall travel
00:54time required in the existing Perth to London and Sydney to Singapore to London services.
01:00Tickets for the first Project Sunrise flights from Sydney to London will go on sale in February
01:062027 ahead of the launch beginning in October.
01:10In 2017 Qantas put a challenge out to the aircraft manufacturers.
01:14We asked, build us an aircraft that can fly non-stop from Australia's East Coast to London and
01:21New York.
01:22Airbus answered that challenge.
01:25The tyranny of distance for Australians finally has been conquered.
01:29These 12 aircraft that are going to make this possible, they're each going to carry their
01:34own name, the name of a star.
01:37And it carries the name of the first Catalina, Vega.
01:41This is Project Sunrise.
01:45But our passion is over 50 menosx.
01:45And it carries a deal for England.
01:45It carries the fiscails that you've produced in the same race island come in many different
01:46regions from the United Kingdom.
