In an audacious move towards reconciliation, QANTAS has once again proven itself as a trailblazer in the aviation industry with the introduction of its groundbreaking “Yes 23” livery. In a shocking twist, the airline has also pioneered a new seating arrangement that’s bound to shake up the concept of “first class” forever.

The aviation giant, often referred to as “The Spirit of Australia,” has demonstrated its commitment to the upcoming voice to parliament referendum by painting a whopping “Yes 23” on its planes.

But that’s not all. QANTAS has redefined the in-flight experience, taking a bold step toward reconciliation by designating indigenous-only seats at the front of the plane. Non-indigenous passengers, meanwhile, are gently encouraged to slide into seats at the back.

The airline is calling this initiative “First Nations Class.” By seating indigenous passengers at the front, QANTAS ensures that the first people of the land have their rightful place. As for the passengers at the back, don’t worry – you’ll get specially produced “truth telling” entertainment so you understand your place at the back of the plane.

In keeping with its commitment to reconciliation, QANTAS has also modified its iconic advertising campaign. The beloved jingle, “I still call Australia home,” has been revamped to reflect the airline’s newfound woke perspective: “I still call the first nations that were illegally invaded and colonised home.” The change is aimed at delivering a more historically accurate and sensitive message.

Critics argue that this whole situation is starting to feel like a bizarre parody of progress. However, QANTAS maintains that their intentions are nothing short of revolutionary – they’re taking the bull by the horns and the voice to parliament referendum campaign to new heights.

So, the next time you board a QANTAS flight, remember that you’re not just on a journey to your destination – you’re on a journey toward reconciliation, understanding, and, most importantly, backwards in time to racially segregated seating. As you settle into your seat at the back of the plane, take comfort in the fact that you’re contributing to a better future. After all, it’s not about where you sit, it’s about the awkward welcome to country that gets you there.
