Hugh Jackman is joining John Travolta and Miranda Kerr as a global ambassador for Qantas airlines.
According to the Qantas press release, Jackman has signed on to become an official global ambassador for the airline and will also work with Qantas on community projects in Australia.
“I travel a lot and like all Aussies, I get a buzz whenever I see the familiar red tail and the kangaroo logo, no matter where I am in the world. Qantas is great airline with great people and represents the very best of our wonderful country,” Jackman said in the announcement.
“Qantas has always had a vital role in promoting Australia as a tourism destination and I’m looking forward to playing my part as we work together to showcase our amazing cities, landscapes and experiences in the US, Asia and beyond,” Jackman said.
Qantas chief Alan Joyce said: “Hugh represents everything that the world loves about Australians and he has used his enormous international success to promote Australia as well as highlight causes that are close to his heart.
“We will build on the work both Qantas and Hugh are already doing and together we believe we have the capacity to create some truly life changing opportunities.”
Qantas recently ranked tenth in the world’s top ten airlines at this year’s Skytrax Awards.
