Regional airlines - routes and developments
With a lot happening in regional aviation, I thought a thread on the topic might be interesting. In particular the evolution of routes beyond the traditional service from a regional town to its state capital is becoming significant.
For example look at FlyCorporate's Orange - Melbourne, Jetgo's Dubbo to Brisbane and Melbourne, Airnorth's Toowoomba - Melbourne and the recently launched FlyPelican Newcastle - Adelaide.
One notable absentee from this evolution of flying interstate regional routes is REX. Why?
