This round mousepad features a QANTAS Empire Airways bag sticker from the late 1940’s featuring the Kangaroo Route.
In 1944 BOAC (British Overseas Airways Corporation) and QANTAS Empire Airways combined to provide air service from London to Sydney. The service was named the Kangaroo Service and the passenger award became The Order of the Longest Hop. It was on this route that the Kangaroo logo was first used. After the war, the return trip could also go from Colombo to the Cocos Islands, then to Perth on to Sydney. These flights continued until 5 April 1946.
In 1934, QANTAS Limited and Britain’s Imperial Airways (a forerunner of British Airways) formed a new company, Qantas Empire Airways Limited (QEA). The new airline commenced operations in December 1934 flying between Brisbane and Darwin using obsolescent DH.50 and de Havilland DH.61 biplanes. In 1967, the airline placed orders for the Boeing 747 and Qantas Empire Airways changed its name to Qantas Airways.
