Qantas does Vegas direct

[RooFlyer]

Las Vegas. Sure, we've all been there or want to go there .. don't we? Who doesn't want to see the Eiffel Tower while sculling a Bud?

Ah. That's more like it:

But for Qantas, these five Boeing 787 flights are anything but a gamble.

Each plane is a special charter service carrying Rugby League fans to Vegas for the February 28 kick-off of the 2026 NRL season at the city’s 60,000-seat Allegiant Stadium.

Even more ah (from last December):

But while Qantas could default to a Sydney-Vegas route, Jetstar CEO Steph Tully has her eye on Brisbane-Vegas – or, as she puts it, “Bris-Vegas to Las Vegas.”

“It’s very Jetstar, we think,” she has told The Australian.

Very.

Well that headline certainly oversold expectations. Then again, I suppose, Airline flies a few one-off charter flights doesn't have quite the same clickbait appeal.

I saw them hyping this story up on Facebook too; going to be quite a few confused/disappointed punters out there a month from now.
