QANTAS = Queensland And Northern Territories Air Service (so no "U")
"never crashed" is not quite correct but certainly no fatal accidents. A 747 overran a runway in Thailand in 1999 by 220 metres and ended up in a golf course with 407 people on board.
And of course there was that "turbine blade perforating the wing" incident on the A380 that based on the report was sheer luck it missed the fuel tanks and pipes. Admittedly that was a Rolls Royce issue not QANTAS but it would still have been recorded against them
