A new chapter for Qantas First experience
Progressively rolling out across the Flying Kangaroo's international network from December, the enhancements, and introduction of new onboard partners, are part of the airline's ongoing investment in customer experience and have been shaped by customer insights and inflight trials.
Customers in First travelling on flights from Australia will get a taste of one of the world's best restaurants in the sky, with Qantas Creative Director of Food and Beverage Neil Perry serving up signature dishes from his awarded Margaret restaurant, alongside a range of new menu items featuring Australian producers from across the country.
The new First dining experience will be paired with award-winning Australian wines, a wider selection of cocktails and a signature pour of Bollinger La Grande Année 2015 alongside Pommery Cuvée Louise 2006.
New Aesop amenity kits in three exclusive collectable designs created for Qantas First will be offered to customers alongside the introduction of new navy Qantas-designed pyjamas and loafer-style slippers for inflight comfort.
As part of the Flying Kangaroo's ongoing focus on jetlag mitigation and inflight wellness ahead of its groundbreaking ultra long-haul Project Sunrise flights, First customers will be able to opt to dine on demand throughout the journey to allow for maximum rest.
Qantas First is available on services operated on A380 aircraft flying between Australia and Singapore, London, Los Angeles, Johannesburg and Dallas. The First enhancements are expected to fully roll out across the network by mid 2026.
