Qantas Freight and Australia Post have received the first of three additional Airbus A321 Passenger-to-Freighter aircraft. The delivery was announced on October 19, 2026, as the companies add capacity ahead of the busy year-end shopping season.
The other two aircraft are scheduled to join the Qantas Freight fleet by March 2027. According to Qantas, once all three are in service, they will add up to 20% capacity to the dedicated freighter network it operates for Australia Post.
Each flight will be able to carry up to 20,000 Australia Post and StarTrack parcels. The freighters will support overnight and next-day deliveries nationwide, serving all of Qantas Freight’s domestic terminals.
