How do you pronounce Qantas (in English)?
Or more like: how should one ~
'Cause I thought, maybe they need to add a u after q just to justify the gentlemen's convention?

I've always said /'kahntəs/, because I'm comfortable with words having q not followed by u. But in their ads, they say /'kwahntəs/.

Oh, forget it. It happens to be a stupid acronym. Except they don't spell it as an acronym. So, maybe they do want it to be pronounced like Qatar. The Flying Qangaroo?Strange.
