100 Years of ANZAC: The Spirit Lives

On 25 April 2014, we revealed a new special livery that was painted on four of our Airbus A330-300 aircraft. It commemorates the 100th anniversaries of the beginning of World War I in 1914, the landing of the ANZACs at Gallipoli on April 25, 1915, and the end of the war in 1918. The liveries have remained on the selected aircraft for four years, and will be retired in 2019.

The Australian and New Zealand Army Corps, or ANZACs, were pivotal in shaping Australia's and New Zealand's national identities. The Gallipoli Campaign was the first major military loss that the two countries experienced, but it was through this devastation that the ANZAC spirit was born -- a spirit of endurance, courage, ingenuity, good humour, larrikinism and mateship. It is for their sacrifice in the Battle of Gallipoli and the many that followed that Australians and New Zealanders forever remember the ANZACs.

Lest We Forget.
