If they were running those flights at a profit, it wouldn't have been much I wouldn't have thought. And if they weren't making anything on them, then shutting the services down works in their favour.
Why wouldn't they make anything on the Sydney QLD routes? From what I seen demand was high even the passengers I spoke to said they wanted to travel further within Australia.

Be interesting how Bain react to the closure of QLD is all my point was. how much are they prepared to loose given the state of Australia and world economy.
