Qantas Just Says GOODBYE to the 777X and turning to A350! Here's Why (LIVE)
Nearly 4.4 billion US dollars, yes, that's the amount Qantas spent to place an order for Airbus A3 50-1000 airbus. This airline assigned these 12 aircraft the mission of implementing the Sunrise plan. A plan to bring passengers from the east coast of Australia to Europe and New York by direct flights. At that time, there was much debate about which plane Qantas would choose. Airbus A3 50, or Boeing triple 7X. And the answer is already there.
So why did the A3 50 win this duel? How will the airline plan to operate this flight? How does this plan change the aviation industry? Let's find out in today’s video!
Sunrise Project
Qantas Just Says GOODBYE to the 777X and turning to A350! Here's Why (LIVE)
The goal of the then-announced "Project Sunrise" in 20 17 was to push the limits of long-distance flying; flights were scheduled to go over 10,000 miles and take about 20 hours. With no longer needing stopovers, these long-haul flights will drastically cut down on passengers' travel time, increasing overall travel efficiency. The goal of Qantas is to beat the record for the longest non-stop flight in the world and bring about a new development in the field of commercial aviation.
"Project Sunrise is set to redefine the way we travel, offering unprecedented convenience and speed for our passengers. This is a game-changing moment for both Qantas and the aviation industry as a whole." Alan Joyce, CEO of Qantas, emphasized the importance of the program.

Projects on ultra-long flights were first mentioned in 20 17. But the huge impact of the pandemic pushed back the launch time. And after rain comes sunshine. The global aviation industry is currently constantly growing again thanks to booming travel demand, this is the time for Project Sunrise to definitely return with an expected launch date of 20 25. Although the airline's direct flights from Perth to London and Rome are more costly than its typical routes that stop in Asia, they have proven to be popular. The Boeing 7 8 7 is flown by Qantas from Perth to Europe, and it has been used on a test flight from Sydney to London. However, Qantas selected the Airbus A3 50 1000 while looking to extend its flight range to the United States, as part of the Sunrise Project over Boeing's rival aircraft, the 777x. So why was the A350 chosen?

[philipbrailey]

Qantas has made the correct decision.
A350 is a beautiful aircraft.
Extra fuel to travel from Sydney to London non-stop.

QANTAS must say "NO" to the BOEING 777X and turning to the AIRBUS A350-1000 xwb/ulr for the project sunrise future. Even Garuda Indonesia, if it is Indonesian flag carrier/Indonesia's National Airline can turning to AIRBUS A350s for the next future of BOEING 777s replacement for the long haul flight route including European route, African route and South/North American route for Garuda Indonesia's use AIRBUS both A350-900/1000 xwb/ulr for the next year later.

It is depending, what a customer would like to operate. I am talking about the combination between pax and cargo and the average altitude of the airports.

[muffmat]

Qantas never considered the 777 for project sunrise. Is was always between the 787 or the 350.

[angeri]

If Qantas was concerned about its customers on its sunrise program, why don't they make the economy seats all larger? They haven't so its all just propaganda, there is no way i would fly 19 hours straight just to make Qantas rich without giving us economy passengers more room for these long haul flights.

13:47 ... " The reality is that it is a fleet that is aging over time " .... Yeah, with such a statement it's unlikely that anyone at "Flig Avia"will ever get a nobel prize in physics ... FIY, the same issue applies to nearly everything in all the universes of creation, even to mummies sleeping in their sarcophagi since 5 or 6 thousand years, it's also a problem... Congratulations for discovering one of physics' most fundamental principles.... What a mind boggling breakthrough !! LoL 🤣🤣😛😛

[odenviking]

I would choose airbus 1 .
👍👍👍👍👍👍🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪

Finally someone stopped waiting for Boeing and made the right decision to modernize the jet fleet

[staszek]

While Boeing’s focus is on DEI, Airbus is about efficiency, safety and innovation.
It makes sense.

I feel that the shift away from hub and spoke is rather overstated.

While smaller, longer range narrowbodies will allow new direct routes to become viable, there will always be a necessity to maintain a significant hub and spoke model to offer flexibility and frequency.

I regularly connect at three hubs, Frankfurt, Munich and Zurich, all airports with a significant percentage (just over half in the case of Frankfurt and around a third for the other two) of passengers with connecting flights. Taking Swiss (via Zurich) as an example, they dispay connection details often for double digit locations. Simple arithmatic tells us that the number of passengers between each two destination permutation will not be great. In fact, I have often been in the position of being the only person flying my particular route, yet both aircraft have been quite full. Thanks to the hub and spoke model, I have many choices each day on a route that would struggle to fill a single A320 more than once a week.

Put quite simply, without the hub and spoke model with its connecting flights, many scheduled routes would not be viable point to point. Not only would passengers have to make their own connections, collect any hold luggage and re-check-in for each leg of their journey, they would have to take on personal responsibility when a delay or cancellation causes a connection to be missed.

Yes, I see an increase in point to point, but far less of, or even very little reduction in hub and spoke.

21:57 Kindly correct it.
The display should be...

The difference being that Airbus said " Yes we can do that" and the QF A350 are under way. Boeing on the other hand offered the old 777LR as an interim to be replaced by the 777-8 when that comes online. However with the 777-9 yet to be certified and the 777-8 is stil in never never land, Qantas made the only choice they could. Some may call it a niche market but the SYD-LHR is one of the biggest for QF with heaps of competition but none can go non stop. We'll see if BA makes a move on this later. but apart from the project sunrise order you can be guaranteed more A350s will join Qantas.

[MyKharli]

If only customers would chose the environment .

[arunta]

Alan has been gone for a while. The new CEO is a lady from within the Qantas ranks. I believe she is working to resolve some of the problems Qantas has faced in recent times. Qantas never ordered the Boeing 777 and operates a mixed fleet with both Boeing and Airbus including the A-380 which ticks quite a few boxes with Qantas for now on the longer haul higher capacity routes.

[dbananas]

You here less issues from Airbus than you would from Boeing

[angeri]

Prefer the Airbus, particularly the A380

Boeing is finished as Production Shoddy

[curtsoltau]

Hmm, You did mention the lower engine on wing time, which is higher using GE engines.. This will result less flight hrs for the engines between mainentance on the A350-1000!

[kaleemansari]

Everyone is commenting about the aircraft and profitable airlines will become. No one seems to be concerned about passengers, especially in the economy class. Has anyone looked into the health effect of these long haul 20-22 hour flights where young, old, children and of different heath need passengers are locked in a tube like sardines. I am not talking about the first or business class passengers where they can lie down. Economy passengers can only reclined seats a little. I wonder how many times passengers get up and are able to walk around. I have traveled in business class several times. In the end I could not stand straight or walk for several hours. Think about it.
I know airlines will save quite a bit in airport charges and fuel costs as most of the fuel is consumed during takeoff.
