Qantas has completed restoration of its final Airbus A380, welcoming the tenth superjumbo back to service after nearly six years in storage. The aircraft, named after Qantas founder Paul McGinness, underwent over 100,000 hours of maintenance including comprehensive engineering checks, heavy maintenance, landing gear replacement, and full cabin renovation. Beginning January 1, 2026, it will operate daily A380 flights on the Sydney-Dallas route, enabling Qantas to offer enhanced capacity on key long-haul routes. The completion marks a major milestone in the airline’s pandemic recovery, with the entire A380 fleet now operational for the first time since early 2020.
