In June 2015, Qantas and American Airlines announced
the execution of a Restated Joint Business Agreement.
Still subject to approval from the Department of
Transportation, this expansion represents a natural
evolution of the existing alliance between Qantas and
American, providing the airlines with a platform for
further growth, closer commercial ties, and an even
more seamless customer experience on routes
between North America and Australia/New Zealand.
The American Airlines partnership is a revenue sharing
agreement on all direct routes between Australia/New
Zealand and North America.
