Qantas Orders A350s and 787s

SimpleFlying.com reports that Qantas Airways is ordering 12 A350-1000ULRs and 12 787s (four 787-9s and eight 787-10s), along with options for additional aircraft. These aircraft, with deliveries beginning in 2027, will replace Qantas’ A330-200, A330-300 and A380-800 fleets. The plan is for the 787s to replace the A330s, and the A350s to replace the A380s. Currently, Qantas serves HNL from SYD with an A330-300. A pair of Qantas' A330-200s have been undergoing freighter conversion, and will join the QantasFreight fleet.
