From QF Facebook
The first QantasLink Airbus A220 commercial flights took to the skies today, operated by two brand new jets straight from the Airbus factory in Mirabel, Canada.
VH-X4B, named ‘Koala’, operated the inaugural service QF1266 from Melbourne to Canberra, carrying passengers and aviation enthusiasts on the historic flight.
VH-X4A, named ‘Minyma Kutjara Tjukurpa’ with its striking Indigenous livery, made its commercial passenger debut shortly afterwards as QF1268.
As part of our fleet renewal program, the A220s will progressively replace our retiring Boeing 717s, with the
third A220 due to arrive in Australia in June and a further four to be delivered by mid-2025.
