Qantas International network update - March 2026
Qantas is adjusting its international schedule to redeploy some aircraft to operate more flights between Australia and Europe, in response to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East and very strong demand.
The updated schedule will come into effect progressively for flights from mid-April and run until late July.
Key changes include:
- Flights between Perth-Rome will increase from up to four return flights per week to daily.
- Flights to Paris will increase from three return flights per week to five. The flights will originate in Sydney and operate via Singapore instead of Perth. This will enable an additional 60 customers to travel to Paris on each flight, compared to the existing service.
- Perth-Singapore will increase from a daily service to 10 flights per week, timed to connect with Qantas’ Singapore-Paris flights.
Qantas will also continue to operate its daily Perth-London service via Singapore, though the London-Perth flight will operate direct.
The changes are enabled by redeploying some Boeing 787 aircraft from US routes as well as moving some A330 domestic flying onto international routes.
We are contacting customers impacted by the schedule changes and offering them alternative flights within 24 hours of their original departure or a refund.
The Group continues to monitor the situation in the Middle East and its impact on fuel security, the price of fuel, and demand for travel, and will make further adjustments as required.
