Qantas’ connection to Hawaii runs deep, with a legacy that spans more than 80 years. The airline began flying to the region in 1941, initially through Pacific ferry operations, before launching regular passenger services in 1954. Since then, Honolulu has become one of Qantas’ most popular international leisure destinations, continuing to play an important role in its trans-Pacific offering.
