Qantas is adding further capacity to the US with the launch of direct flights from Melbourne to Honolulu from early-May 2025*.

On sale from today, the new service will boost capacity to the USA by adding more than 40,000 seats per year to the Hawaiian capital, in addition to existing Sydney to Honolulu services with Qantas and Jetstar which collectively operate eight times per week. The new Qantas flights will operate three times per week with an Airbus A330 aircraft.

Coincing with the launch of the new Qantas service, Jetstar will cease its current twice weekly Dreamliner 787 Melbourne to Honolulu flights from 30 April 2025, with the aircraft to be depolyed on another long-haul route.

The Qantas route announcement comes as the Flying Kangaroo launches a 7-day North and South America Red Tail Sale, with more than 50,000 seats discounted across the Qantas network from today.

Economy sale fares start from $1,049 return, with more than 30 routes on sale, including Sydney and Brisbane to Los Angeles ($1,199), Sydney to Vancouver ($1,599), Melbourne to Honolulu ($1,049) and Melbourne to Dallas ($1,699).

The fares are for a range of travel periods between October 2024 and June 2025, offering passengers the opportunity to book great value flights for an upcoming business trip, visit to family and friends abroad, or a dream holiday.

All sale fares include checked baggage, complimentary food and beverages, and seat selection. Qantas Frequent Flyers will also earn Qantas Points and Status Credits on eligible flights.
