QantasLink will also look to operate the Q400 twice-weekly between Exmouth and Perth on Mondays and Wedensdays, to complement Boeing 717s services on Fridays and Sundays.
“We are looking forward to introducing our Q400 aircraft on these key WA routes as part of Qantas’s significant investment in regional Australia. This follows our successful deployment and utilisation of this aircraft type across several destinations within Australia and Papua New Guinea,” QantasLink executive manager, Narendra Kumar said.
To operate the Q400 services, QantasLink is set to establish a new pilot and cabin crew base in Perth.
