23 Qantas Annual Report 2008
20%20%
The B787 will offer a more than 20
per cent reduction in fuel consumption
per passenger compared with the B767.
Fleet
B787
The Qantas Group’s order for up to 115 B787 aircraft, including
65 firm orders, will enable the gradual replacement of the existing
B767-300 fleet.
The B787 will offer a more than 20 per cent reduction in fuel
consumption per passenger compared with the B767, a 50 per cent
smaller noise footprint, greater freight capacity and a greater range
capability, enabling Jetstar and Qantas to fly more point-to-point
services without the need to operate via hubs.
Jetstar, which will take delivery of the first 15 B787s for long-haul
international flying, was originally expected to operate the new
aircraft from 2008 but manufacturing delays announced by Boeing
have pushed the delivery date back to late 2009.
Qantas is expected to begin operating the B787 during 2012,
15 months later than the original schedule.
Fleet Renewal
At 30 June 2008, the Qantas Group operated a fleet of 224
passenger aircraft and four freighter aircraft.
In response to continuing high fuel prices, the retirement
of the four remaining B747-300 and six Dash 8-100 aircraft
have been brought forward to December 2008.
Between 30 June and 31 October 2008, the following aircraft
will have entered service:
• one A380;
• one A330-200;
• one A320-200;
• three B737-800s; and
• three Bombardier Q400s.
