Qantas Freight and Australia Post Announce Dedicated Air Freight Fleet

Qantas and Australia Post today announced a new dedicated domestic air-freighter network to be used exclusively by Australia Post and StarTrack customers.

The dedicated air freight network will consist of six freighter aircraft featuring StarTrack livery, with continued priority access to cargo space in the Qantas Group’s passenger fleet. Five of the dedicated StarTrack freighters will come from Qantas Freight’s existing fleet, with a soon to be delivered sixth larger aircraft, a Boeing 737-400, joining the fleet.*

To be launched in July this year – the network is part of the five-year contract, with a value in excess of $500 million, signed last year for the transport of Australia Post’s domestic mail, parcels and Express Post until mid-2020.
