Qantas and iconic Australian lifestyle brand Country Road today announced the launch of a new amenity kit for Qantas customers travelling in Premium Economy from 26 January.

The unisex kit comes in a custom black and white gingham print and is the perfect size to fit travel amenities and use on the go. The contents include a Country Road-branded eye mask, socks, a toothbrush and toothpaste.

Phil Capps, Qantas’ Head of Product and Service Development, said the new Country Road amenity kit was an additional benefit for Premium Economy customers.

“We love what Country Road does and we’re really proud to partner with such an iconic brand to give our customers around the world an authentic Australian experience when they fly with us,”

“Premium Economy is one of our most popular cabins and appeals to customers who want a little indulgence at a reasonable price, so we continue to look for ways to improve their travel experience and often it’s the little things that count.

“We have always offered comfort items in Premium Economy, but we wanted to add an extra bit of luxury with the new Country Road amenity kit, which customers can use after the flight as a make-up bag, pouch for a smart-phone or personal earphones and the like,” added Mr Capps.

Partnering with Qantas on the Premium Economy Amenity Kits means we are now able to extend the same modern and versatile design experience to our customers while they travel,”
