Historic: Qantas Airbus A321 Freighter Is First To Land At New Western Sydney Airport

The new Western Sydney International Airport (WSI) has reached another key milestone ahead of its opening, with a Qantas Airbus A321 having become the first freighter to touch down at the facility earlier this morning. This new airport, which is named after Australian 20th-century aviation pioneer Nancy Bird Walton, will open to cargo traffic later this month, with passenger services launching in October.
