It looks like Qantas mainline has stopped flying to Proserpine, and it's all done by Jetstar, and only from Brisbane so you'd have to change if you were coming from Melbourne or Sydney.
The other airport in the area is Hamilton Island. Again it looks like Qantas mainline no longer flies there and it's all Jetstar. But there are non-stops from both Melbourne and Sydney.
On Virgin Blue, virtually all the flights to Proserpine are from Brisbane. There's only one non-stop flight each week from Sydney; none from Melbourne. And all DJ flights to Hamilton Island seem to be from Brisbane.
