Australian airline Qantas announced on Monday that it will launch the world’s first non-stop commercial flights linking Sydney with London and New York by the end of 2025.
It will order 12 Airbus A350-1000s to operate Project Sunrise flights to cities such as London and New York from Sydney by the end of 2025, Qantas said in a statement.
“New types of aircraft make new things possible,” Qantas Chairman Alan Joyce said in a statement.
‘The A350 and Project Sunrise will make any city just one flight from Australia,’ he added. ‘It is the final frontier and the definitive solution against the tyranny of distance’.
