Latest News|Published 27 June 2024

Qantas and Jetstar have announced they will commence operating up to nine return flights each week between Australia and Vanuatu, with the new seats going on sale across both carriers today. 

Starting on 10 September 2024*, Qantas will fly three times a week between Brisbane and Port Vila, with the ability to increase to five per week based on demand. Jetstar will offer up to four weekly flights between Sydney and Port Vila from 12 December 2024.

Creating more than 150,000 new seats each year between Australia and Vanuatu, the new flights will unlock a mix of all-inclusive travel on Qantas and great low fares with optional extras on Jetstar.

Qantas will launch its new flights with its Boeing 737 aircraft while Jetstar will use its growing fleet of Airbus A321neo LRs.

These new services will support Vanuatu’s tourism economy and help to further develop the South Pacific nation as a must-see destination for Australian holidaymakers.

Renowned for its rich Indigenous culture, pristine beaches, active volcanos, vibrant marine life and adventure activities, Vanuatu is one of the most magical destinations on Australia’s doorstep.
