Qantas adjusts schedule for Europe travel surge
1 May
Summary
- Qantas has extended its schedule changes through September.
- Middle East tensions and fuel costs influence adjustments.
- Strong Europe travel demand is a key factor in planning.

Qantas Airways has announced an extension of its schedule adjustments across both its international and domestic networks, now effective through September 2026. This strategic decision stems from persistent geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and a notable increase in fuel expenses.
The airline is actively responding to these economic pressures by prioritizing routes that demonstrate higher profitability. This includes a significant focus on European destinations, which are currently seeing strong travel demand from customers. To further offset the rising operational costs, Qantas had previously adjusted its fares upwards and strategically shifted its available capacity.
