Qantas continues to maintain its reputation as Australia's largest airline by fleet size and destinations, both domestically and internationally. Known affectionately as the flying Kangaroo, Qantas has been operating since 1920 and is one of the founding members of the oneworld airline alliance.
The airline's Boeing 737-800 aircraft form the backbone of their domestic and short-haul international operations. While Qantas operates several routes, the direct services between Melbourne and Sydney stand out as the most popular for this aircraft type. During May, Qantas will conduct 928 flights from Melbourne to Sydney, providing approximately 161,472 seats in total.
Sydney to Brisbane is another busy domestic route for the 737-800, with Qantas operating 539 flights scheduled for May. This stretch is considered Australia's second most-traveled domestic route, linking the gateway to Queensland and its vibrant capital, Brisbane. The airline plans more than 93,000 available seats on this route.
