Unfortunately Moroomba is the loser in the whole deal.

They've been running to Mount Magnet for years when no one else was interested and have now lost it to Skippers.

Hope there is no adverse effect on their Jetstream and the guys who drive it.....

Effectively Mooromba lose Mount Magnet and gain nothing.

Skywest lose Leonora & Leinster but gain Kalbarri & Shark Bay.

Skippers lose Kalbarri & Shark Bay but gain Leonora, Leinster & Mount Magnet.

Skysista - can you tell us how MacTiernan was meant to give Skippers the coastal routes when they didn't even tender for them?? Maybe that had something to do with her decision??

Also.........
bet they've been waiting to limit the Skippers flights into GET considering they've managed to get a big share of that market
Don't know what you're on about Skysista - the number of seats into and out of Geraldton by each carrier is regulated by the state government. The new tender allows for both Skippers and Skywest to increase the number of seats into Geraldton. (SKippers still has 'limited access' to Geraldton under the terms on the new tender.)
