New route, new possibilities!
Auckland to Perth with Qantas
We always go ‘quokkas” when we hear new routes being announced. Qantas’s new Auckland to Perth route is expected to be operational by 7th December 2025. A great full-service option on an A330 for those heading to South Africa, easier, faster connections to Europe — less hassle, more adventure. And for those hopping the ditch to visit friends and family or wanting to sample to wonders of WA a little competition typically means cheaper fares!
