ULURU, AUSTRALIA - OCTOBER 10: Qantas flight number QF787, a Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft flies close to Uluru in the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, Northern Territories on October 10, 2020 in Uluru, Australia. With international and domestic border closures due to the COVID-19 pandemic putting a halt on travel, the Qantas Great Southern Land Scenic flight will take 150 passengers on an aerial tour over iconic Australian destinations. The seven-hour scenic flight on board a Qantas 787 Dreamliner aircraft - usually used for long haul international flights - will perform a loop from Sydney up to locations along the New South Wales and Queensland coasts as well as Uluru in the Northern Territory before landing back in Sydney.
