Qantas Perth-Paris: Marathon Economy Review

Pinch me, I’m in Paris!

Leaving Perth at night and waking up just in time for breakfast in Paris felt surreal. I had to pinch myself a few times to make sure it was real. Arriving in the City of Light, refreshed and ready for a croissant, was an experience I won’t forget. It’s a bit like magic, really—one moment you’re in Perth, and the next you’re seeing the Eiffel Tower through the aircraft window.

Arrival in Paris: A pleasant surprise

Landing in Paris was a breeze. The customs lines at CDG were the quickest I’ve ever seen, and baggage arrived within 10-15 minutes—rare and amazing for CDG! We were greeted by a big kangaroo and quokka mascots, French accordion music, and Qantas staff handing out jus d’orange pressé and croissants. Though this was likely a special touch for the inaugural flight, it was a delightful welcome. Nothing like a bit of Parisian flair to say, “Bienvenue!”

Why direct is a game changer

Let’s talk about the real hero here: the direct flight. No more juggling kids, carry-ons, and sanity during those stopovers. Forget trying to find a decent meal in a crowded airport while watching the clock. Now, you board in Perth, get cosy in your seat, and wake up in Paris. It’s like teleportation but with more legroom and much better food. Setting up once, plugging in devices, and settling into movies—all done in one go. No more disembarking and reboarding with half your energy and double the frustration. This direct flight is the ultimate convenience, especially for those with kids – Final verdict: 100% worth it
