It comes ahead of a special WorldPride flight from Los Angeles to Sydney on 22 February, where customers will enjoy “an array of experiences” hosted by Australian comedian Joel Creasey.

The on-board entertainment will include “live inflight entertainment”, limited edition ‘Rainbow Roo’ Qantas pyjamas and a menu created by chef Neil Perry.

“Supporting the LGBTQI+ community is part of the Qantas spirit and this flight will be operated by members of the Qantas Illuminate network, a community of Qantas LGTBQI+ employees and their allies,” said chief executive Alan Joyce.

"Meil on hea meel tuua USA-st külalisi mitte ainult Sydney WorldPride'i tähistama, vaid ka kogeda kõike, mida sellel elaval linnal ja riigil on pakkuda."

All passengers on the flight will also be given admission to the Sydney WorldPride concert featuring special guest performer Kylie Minogue on 24 February.

Austraalia lennundus teatas selle kuu alguses, kuidas Qantas teeks bolster its fleet of Dreamliners, with plans to add a trio of 787s to its line-up in June.

Kolme täiendava lennukiga suurendatakse Qantase Boeing 787-9 lennukiparki kokku 14 lennukini.

Sarnaselt eelmistele Qantas 787-9-tele on kolmel uuel lennukil 42 äriklassi lamamistooli, 28 esmaklassilist turistitooli ja 166 ökonoomset istet.

Joyce said that the new aircraft will provide additional travel capacity and allow Qantas to keep its fares lower.

"Meile saabub juunis tegelikult kolm uut 787 ja oleme tarneahela probleemide tõttu kaks aastat hiljaks jäänud," ütles ta intervjuus 6PR Perthile.

Qantas is looking to expand its international services with the 787s and is currently in talks with Air France in developing a direct route from Perth to France, as well as several other additional European locations that would bolster Perth Airport as the country’s western international travel hub.

"Me tahame teha Pariisi ja me räägime Air France'i ja teiste Euroopa lennufirmadega, kuidas saaksime seda teha," ütles Joyce.
