Qantas will refresh 16 Boeing 767 (B767) aircraft with new interiors and
individual in-flight entertainment as part of wider investment in the domestic
customer experience.
Qantas Domestic Chief Executive Officer Lyell Strambi said
customers travelling on Qantas' B767 fleet will now enjoy new cabin interiors
and in-flight entertainment (IFE) streamed direct to iPads in every seat.
"Following the successful trial of our QStreaming
service this year, we will partner with Panasonic to provide over 200 hours of
on-demand IFE content via iPads to every passenger in Business and Economy
travelling on our B767 fleet," said Mr Strambi said.
"Our customers were the first in the world to
experience the ground-breaking wi-fi entertainment technology and we received
great feedback from our customers during the trial this year."
"We're now looking at ways to evolve this technology
platform even further with our partner Panasonic to bring new standards of
in-flight entertainment to our customers.
"We will also refresh the fleet's cabin interiors with
a contemporary design that includes leather seat covers in Business and a new
look and feel in the Economy cabin. Other enhancements include new carpet,
lighting, curtains and dividers."

The first of 16 aircraft to be refreshed will enter into
service in October.
In addition to new aircraft deliveries (one A330 and two
B737-800s this year), the B767 refresh forms part of a wider strategic
investment across the domestic customer experience including enhancements to
ground operations and further upgrades to other domestic aircraft over the next
few years.
