Qantas is expanding its free in-flight Wi-Fi service to select international routes, starting with its Asia routes by the end of this month.

By mid-2025, satellite coverage will also be extended across the Tasman to New Zealand. Qantas’ domestic fleet, including Boeing 737s, Airbus A220s and A330s, are already equipped with the Australian NBN Sky Muster satellite network, which provides Wi-Fi service only when flying over Australia. For international flights, Qantas is upgrading to Viasat’s satellite technology to extend the service beyond Australian airspace.

This upgrade will allow Qantas to offer faster, more reliable Wi-Fi on international routes, with plans to integrate Viasat’s ViaSat-3 satellites for global coverage by 2026.

Once the system is fully installed, Qantas’ Airbus A380s, 787s, and A220s will follow, providing high-speed Wi-Fi, including for flights to major long-haul destinations like London and New York.
