Australian flag carrier Qantas has officially restarted its route from Brisbane to Manila after ending the flight in 2014.
Flight QF97 departed Brisbane at 21:46 local time on October 28, 2024, using 296 seater Airbus A330-300 aircraft, with registration VH-EBG, arriving Manila at approximately 3:00 AM local time on October 29, 2024. Return Flight departed Manila at 5:10 AM and arrived at Brisbane airport at 2:11 PM on Tuesday.
The route will operate four times per week every Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. The route is expected to add more than 100,000 annual seats between Australia and the Philippines, and will also improve connectivity for passengers traveling to the Philippines from Auckland, Christchurch, and Wellington in New Zealand.
The reinstated Brisbane service complements the Flying Kangaroo’s existing daily route from Sydney to Manila, and will add to what is already more than 300,000 Qantas seats to and from the Philippines every year.
Qantas will celebrate 75 years of passenger services between the two countries in 2025.
