Gallery: Stored Aircraft An ‘Eerie’ Sight Over Alice Springs

All lined up with nowhere to go for the time being!

An overview of parked aircraft, with the Alice Springs Terminal and surrounds in the background.

Nine different airlines are displayed in this close-up Image.

Cathay Pacific is the most dominant carrier and Boeing 777s are the most dominant type.

Singapore Airlines has seven A380s at Alice Springs, after one recently returned to Singapore for a cabin refurbishment.

The majority of aircraft stored at Alice Springs are widebodies.

In the foreground are some original arrivals from Our Airline (now known as Nauru Airlines), looking a little worse for wear!

The vast terrain of Alice Springs—which spans dusty red desert, mountain ranges and gorges—is why the area is called the Red Centre of Australia!

Twenty-four Cathay Pacific Boeing 777s are neatly parked in the desert.

An Alliance Embraer E190 landing at Alice Springs. Alliance and Qantas have entered into an agreement, whereby Alliance flies its E190s under the Qantas link brand, on longer thin routes for Qantas. They will also launch some new city pairs to accommodate the increase in domestic tourism as a result of COVID-19; the aircraft operating on behalf of Qantas will be painted in Qantas Link colors.
