If Mr & Mrs Traffic Senior are bellwether consumers then Skywest will always keep the paying punters.
They have a place in Broome and have used both Qantas and Skywest. Qantas just the once but that was more than enough. If the route ultimately reverts to a monopoly and that is QF then the place will be sold.
Qantas monoploy equals death to Broome.
Traffic Senior has 30,000 hours in his log book and has sworn he will never ever get on another QF a/c. Can't say I can fault his judgement.
