15 years of Qatar Airways touching down in Australia

 

Qatar Airways is marking 15 incredible years of connecting Australia to the world, and they’re doing it by offering an exclusive onboard culinary experience.

Available now until 15 December 2024, First and Business Class passengers will be treated to a special anniversary menu that puts Australia’s finest flavours on display.

For 15 years, Qatar Airways has proudly connected Australia to the world with unmatched service and luxury – from spacious cabins, award-winning onboard services to destination-inspired cuisines.

A nod to local Australian ingredients

Forget the standard plane food. The 15th anniversary menu showcases Australian produce, with farm-to-tray-table ingredients, like Queensland lemon myrtle, South Australian bush tomato, and Tasmanian mountain pepper.

Some of the standout dishes that our team have had the pleasure of sampling include:

  • Grilled Morten Bay prawns with Noosa finger lime Thai style salad.
  • Tasmanian mountain pepper with Gippsland beef tenderloin.
  • Northern Tablelands strawberry gum compote with apple cream cake.

And for those with dietaries, Qatar Airways has you covered with some equally delicious alternatives that have also passed the FCM taste test.

To mark such a key milestone in our Australian operations, this special menu is carefully curated to reflect the Australian heritage by incorporating native flavours into our award-winning business class menu offerings.

Guests can look forward to sampling some of Australia’s unique native flavours while enjoying world-class hospitality onboard Qatar Airways. We know Australians are passionate about food and this celebratory menu is testament to Qatar Airways’ commitment to providing the best onboard experience for our passengers and continued quest for service excellence.

Qsuite showing off

It’s no secret that Qatar Airways has already redefined the flying experience, but they’ve somehow made it even better with their World’s Best Business Class, Qsuite, as voted by Skytrax World Airline Awards 11 times. Private seating (with doors), quad configurations, lie-flat beds (even for those over 6ft people), quilted mattresses and seats, mood lighting, and a large media screen with all the ports needed are available. Catch up on emails, snooze, or kick back and watch the latest movie with a beverage in hand.

If business class is off the cards, Qatar Airways’ economy class offering is still among the best in the air. With award-winning chefs curating the menu, some of the widest seats in the industry, and thousands of entertainment options available, you'll be sitting back and relaxing before the seatbelt sign goes off. 

From connecting Australia to over 170 destinations around the world to consistently winning awards, Qatar Airways is no stranger to excellence. Whether heading to Europe, the Middle East, the Americas, or beyond, you’ll be in good hands on your next business trip.
