Qantas Airways Ltd., Australia’s biggest carrier, will resume Airbus SAS A380 services on Nov. 27, 23 days after grounding its fleet of superjumbos following a mid-flight engine explosion.
Chief Executive Officer Alan Joyce will be on the first flight, which will go to London from Sydney via Singapore, he said at a media briefing today. The carrier will conduct further inspections with Airbus, regulators and engine-maker Rolls-Royce Group Plc before resuming other routes, it said in a statement.
