Port Headland will be next I'm told. Maybe, PER-DRW too.

My contact says they are even looking at flights to Coco's and Christmas I, not sure who has the contract to fly there?

PER Base for crew to start soon too, expressions being sought now.

E190s to fly ADL-PER-ADL and as mentioned 3 overnight in PER. E190 has no major operational restrictions into/out of the above ports. CBR is now totally E-Jet territory too these days bar one or two 737 flights a day.

Also look out for VB/PB heading to Bali and even POM soon! Ex BNE/DRW/PER to DPS from Nov I've heard.

Look out boys and girls...

The E-Jet will be a real winner in the west, as long the dispatch reliability slowly improves.
