Qantas has unveiled two new liveries that are perfectly themed for the holidays: a QantasLink Q400 Dash-8 fondly nicknamed “Dasher-8”, and a Boeing B737 that has been given the moniker “Roo-dolph”.
The Australian flag carrier said customers traveling on these aircraft throughout December 2024 will earn double points.
A Qantas Freight A321 aircraft decorated with a ‘Santa’s Freight’ livery is also set to transport thousands of presents and festive fare across Australia in the coming weeks.

Passengers will also be treated to a joyous experience inside the cabin. Rolling out in time for the festive season are new seasonal international first and business inflight menus, a new first class lounge menu and a refreshed beer offering across the network.
“We know our customers, especially the youngest ones, love flying on our special festive aircraft and so we are delighted they are making a return in 2024,” Qantas Group Chief Customer and Digital Officer Catriona Larritt said in a statement.
“Our teams have been working hard over several months to prepare our operations to be ready to help millions of customers to see their family and friends throughout the holiday season,” Larritt added.
In the days leading up to Christmas, traditional festive food and drinks with all the trimmings will be served across selected domestic and international lounges including a Qantas signature Christmas cocktail.
