Review: Qantas Sydney-Auckland-New York QF3 business class

“Transiting at Los Angeles on the way to New York is so much fun”, said nobody ever – at least no-one in their right mind. Lining up to clear immigration, collecting your checked luggage and then re-checking it for your onwards flight to New York while you schlep between terminals and...

While Qantas continues to rebuild its international network, New York could remain off the map until the launch of non-stop Project Sunrise flights in 2025.

Qantas flights to most North American destinations have resumed – among them Los Angeles, Vancouver (now promoted from a seasonal route to running year-around) and Dallas Fort Worth, which will see Melbourne-DFW join the current Sydney-DFW service in December 2022.

None of this is news. The article says "could". Slow news day I guess.

JFK slot relief has been extended until October, and could well be extended beyond that. QF doesn't need to make a decision for ages.
