First of final three Qantas Dreamliners delivered
After more than two years of delays, Qantas quietly took delivery of its latest Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner on Sunday, 31 April. VH-ZNL touched down in Melbourne before 9am that morning after departing from Boeing’s Everett factory at 7:45pm on the 29 April, nearly 20 hours earlier.
Qantas is yet to officially announce the Dreamliner’s arrival, which despite being three years overdue was still over a month ahead of its new schedule. Current Qantas CEO Alan Joyce revealed in February that the airline’s three incoming 787s – now ordered nearly exactly five years ago – would be delivered in June of this year.
