Wicked took top spot as the most-watched movie, with customers spending over 388,000 hours embracing Defying Gravity at 30,000 feet. Action sequels Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning and Gladiator II rounded out the top three, while The White Lotus remained the number one TV show with over 667,000 viewing hours.

For younger flyers, Bluey continued its reign as the most popular kids' program, clocking 157,000 hours of watch time. PAW Patrol and SpongeBob SquarePants weren't far behind, helping make family travel that little bit easier.

When it came to food, passengers made their way through around five million Lindt balls onboard, while our First Lounges in Australia served more than 60,000 plates of Neil Perry's signature salt and pepper squid.

Japan, Europe, Los Angeles, New Zealand and Singapore were the most popular international destinations. AC/DC was the most popular Ticketek redemption in a single day, with members using points to secure their spot at one of the year's most anticipated concerts.

The Qantas App recorded over 180 million visits, with customers checking in, tracking flights and accessing boarding passes.

With three Airbus A321XLRs and six A220 aircraft joining the fleet in 2025, and the first Project Sunrise A350 on the assembly line in Toulouse, 2026 is shaping up to be just as memorable.
