Qantas Unveils Ultra-Long Range A350-1000ULR, Project Sunrise to Conquer Long-Haul Travel

Qantas has unveiled the A350-1000ULR aircraft, designed for non-stop ‘Project Sunrise’ flights between Australia and London or New York. The aircraft features a dedicated ‘Wellbeing Zone’ and reduced capacity for more personal space. Qantas has ordered 12 of the A350-1000ULR aircraft, with the first scheduled for delivery in late 2026 and commercial flights expected to begin in 2027. The airline’s investment in the project may signal a shift towards more efficient and comfortable long-haul flights, as reported by AeroTime.
