Two-time Oscar nominee, two-time Golden Globe winner and Qantas ambassador-at-Large John Travolta will visit Dubai next week to explore Qantas’ new international hub for flights to London and Australia.

Travolta’s visit will mark his first trip to the UAE, where he will embark on a week long programme of touring and corporate hospitality for the airline.

The actor said he was excited to visit the Middle Eastern metropolis and was looking forward to experiencing Dubai’s diverse range of culture, cuisine and architecture.

“I’m really excited, I’ve been wanting to experience Dubai for many years now, and the launch of Qantas services to Dubai has given me the perfect opportunity to do so,” he said in a statement.

“I’ll be travelling on the Qantas A380 from London and then I’ll spend the week touring around the emirate,” he added.
Qantas is inviting fans to win tickets to meet John Travolta during his trip to Dubai on Thursday September 12 by visiting the airline’s Facebook page.

Qantas Middle East & North Africa General Manager, Middle East, Rohan Garnett welcomed the announcement of Travolta’s visit, a key new hub on the Qantas international network.

“John Travolta has been part of the Qantas family for over 10 years. He’s a highly qualified pilot with 747-400 ‘wings’ and flies his own ex-Qantas Boeing 707 around the world, painted in its original 1960s livery,” Garnett said.

“The Middle East is a key international market for Qantas. Since launching services here in March this year, we have flown over half a million passengers between Australia and Dubai. Our services are welcoming new passengers every day and I know John Travolta will be encouraging everyone to try Qantas next time they fly.”

“We’ll also be providing customers with the opportunity to meet John Travolta while he is here with a host of competition and events.”
