Qantas have unveiled the stunning new captain and crew quarters on board their new range of Dreamliner aircrafts.
The Boeing 787’s have already hit the Australian skies, flying domestically since October, with the new range of features extend beyond the passengers.
The planes have been fitted out with luxurious relaxing areas for staff, including private rooms for the pilots to sleep.

Qantas unveiled the new fleet last month, with the Dreamliners capable of travelling non-stop to destinations in Europe and beyond.
The massive 236-seater planes are fitted out with custom chairs with business class and premium economy, providing improved travelling conditions for customers.
The captain and crew quarters include expansive resting areas with wide beds for staff to stretch out during long haul trips.

The pilot’s area has two sleeping areas tucked in behind the cockpit, behind a locked door for security.
The crew also have their own designated room, which is located near the back of the aircraft.
There are six large beds located in their quarters, also closed off to passengers, where they can recharge.

The flying kangaroo are looking to use their Perth HUB to launch their nonstop European flights, with trips direct to London starting to fly from March 2018.
Qantas also want to expand their east coast non-stop options with the next generation of aircraft to fly to New York, Rio de Janeiro and Cape Town are set to become a reality for Australian flyers.
They hope to have direct flights from Sydney to Europe by 2022.
