Dash 8
Experience Qantas comfort and reliability on our Dash 8, seamlessly transporting passengers across domestic and regional Australia.
Our aircraft
As part of our commitment to keeping regional Australia connected, we've invested in 14 additional Dash 8-Q400 aircraft. Larger, and over 30% faster, the Q400s have replaced our smaller turboprops, with the final Q300 leaving operational service in August 2025. The growth of our Q400 fleet allows us to improve your travel experience, offer more seats and help you save time when exploring destinations across Australia.
The Dash 8-Q400 has two configurations:
- 74 Economy seats, or
- 78 Economy seats.
Note: bassinet seats aren't available on these aircraft.
