Old news, but relevant.
I was talking about it with an instructor the otherday about XR leaving Karratha, how they said they didnt get the big companys support, considering ALOT of their flights were full with paying passengers. But the flights were always late and something always seemed to go U/S on the f100's which gave them a bad rep.
Can we see them returning to KTA anytime soon?, or atleast they should offer a Karratha-Port Hedland flight for the Bali bound passengers as most passengers on that flight originate in Karratha.
There were also rumours a while back that Virgin Blue and Jetstar wanted to expand in WA. I still believe that Skywest will do something domestically maybe expand Darwin services, Bali services or something similar.
