Default Qantas 90th Anniversary Celebrations

Hi All,

I only just realised that it's Qantas' 90th anniversary this year and through some digging online have found some references to celebrations being held at Sydney and Brisbane this month.

Even the QF Ambassador, John Travolta is expected to come down with his 707. Not sure if this is common knowledge or not, but thought I'd share.

Are events like these open to the public or just Qantas staff? I've checked the Qantas site and here among others for info and haven't turned up much - maybe I haven't delved deep enough.

Anyone have info on the 707's arrival etc..?

Cheers!

Dan

Any Qantas staff out there who need a new friend please let me know.

Something else that may be of interest. But only CLICK on this link if you are interested in being in the chance to win a flight on JT's B707.

Hey there,

I didnt know Justin Timberlake had a 707.

Travolta will visit Brisbane Airport for a similar open-day event, before venturing to Perth in aid of a special telethon hosted by Qantas
