•Los Angeles-Sydney services will increase from four per week to daily; and
•Los Angeles-Melbourne services will increase from two to three per week.
Qantas Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Alan Joyce, said the move from six to 10 A380 services per week between the two countries followed the recent delivery of the airline's fifth and sixth aircraft.
"The Airbus A380 is the flagship of the Qantas fleet," Mr. Joyce said. "With product and interiors designed by Qantas Creative Director, Australian designer Marc Newson, it offers customers unprecedented levels of space and comfort.
"It is an aircraft that generates strong customer demand and overwhelmingly positive customer feedback. More than 550,000 people have now flown on Qantas A380 services.
"As Australia's premier airline, we are proud to be the only carrier offering A380 services from the U.S., and from March 29, our six-strong fleet will enable us to offer daily A380 services between Los Angeles and Sydney for the first time, and also increase weekly services from Los Angeles to Melbourne."
