Qantas
The Flying Kangaroo. Australia's flag carrier is the third oldest airline in the world and has never had a fatal jet accident. When you're based on an island continent this far from everything, long-haul is in your DNA. The A380s on the Kangaroo Route are legendary.
Qantas stands for 'Queensland and Northern Territory Aerial Services.' It's the only airline whose name is an acronym that everyone treats as a regular word.
