Australian Carrier Expands Western Hub With New Routes
Qantas has launched a direct service between Perth Airport and Johannesburg’s OR Tambo International Airport, marking a significant expansion of the airline’s western Australian hub. The Australian flag carrier has also inaugurated flights linking Perth and Auckland Airport, adding over 150,000 seats annually. According to Qantas, the expansion was made possible through federal funding for additional border services at airports, as reported by AeroTime.
