The launch of the world\u2019s most ambitious new flight routes is getting closer. On Thursday, Qantas updated investors on its plans to connect Australia\u2019s East Coast with Europe and North America.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Billed as \u2018Project Sunrise,\u2019<\/a> the new flights will operate nonstop from Sydney to both London and New York. Other departure points and destinations are due to be added as the program progresses. The name hints at the two sunrises that many passengers will see during the record-breaking journeys.<\/p>\n

The ultra-long-haul city pairings are too far for existing aircraft to operate commercially. As a result, Qantas is working with Airbus to create a specially modified version of its popular A350 plane.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The A350-1000ULR \u2013 that\u2019s Ultra Long Range \u2013 is currently in development. It will be able to fly further than any other civil aircraft and bring key Qantas destinations into nonstop reach. At present, cities such as London and New York can only be reached from Sydney following a refueling stop in Singapore and Auckland respectively.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Given the pioneering nature of the program and well-documented supply chain issues, challenges and hold-ups have been expected. Last year, the airline pushed back its schedule by six months, citing \u201cmanufacturing delays\u201d at Airbus. Critics speculated if this was the first in a series of possible setbacks.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Qantas CEO’s Project Update<\/h2>\n

Silencing the cynics in a fairly upbeat assessment on Thursday, Qantas confirmed that its first Project Sunrise A350-1000ULR will enter the final assembly stage in September. This will be followed by flight testing ahead of its delivery to the airline in the second half of 2026.<\/p>\n

Speaking as the company published its half-year financial results, Qantas Group CEO Vanessa Hudson sounded positive about progress at Project Sunrise. \u201cWe still feel that Airbus is delivering right on time,” the Qantas chief said, adding that precise timelines will be firmed up as the first aircraft delivery gets closer.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Australian flag carrier is already familiar with Airbus long-haul aircraft. It operates the mid-size A330 on Asia-Pacific routes and the superjumbo A380 to flagship longer-haul destinations. <\/p>\n

However, the arrival of the specially modified A350 will require additional pilot training. The airline will also want a reasonable lead-in time ahead of the first flights to maximize sales. This is particularly true for ultra-long-haul routes that passengers typically book in advance.<\/p>\n

When asked if this means passenger flights will begin in 2027, Hudson said, \u201cthat is what we’ve actually been saying.\u201d<\/p>\n
