Qantas Group Reduces International Capacity Growth Amid Fuel Crisis
Qantas Group, which includes Qantas and Jetstar, is reducing its planned international capacity growth due to elevated fuel prices. Originally planning a 4% year-on-year increase, the group will now cut this back by two percentage points for the July-September quarter. The Sydney-Bengaluru route will be suspended from August to October, and trans-Tasman routes will also see reductions. However, Qantas will extend additional flights between Perth and Rome and continue flights to Paris from Sydney via Singapore. Domestic capacity reductions will also continue through September, affecting major city routes. The adjustments are part of a broader strategy to manage the impact of the ongoing fuel crisis, exacerbated by the Iran conflict.
