Sharp Airlines' King Island Services
Sharp Airlines has been investigating the feasibility of extending its Tasmania services to include King Island.
In Tasmania Sharp Airlines currently provides the only regular airline service between Launceston to Flinders Island and Melbourne (Essendon) to Flinders Island which continues to grow with passenger numbers every week.
“We commenced services to Flinders Island 18 months ago from Launceston, and we have grown these services to include additional flights, more seats, and as a result tourism numbers to Flinders Island have grown by 6% over the past year” Managing Director of Sharp Airlines, Mr Malcolm Sharp said.
Mr Sharp said “We are currently holding discussions with Airlines of Tasmania and assessing the feasibility of expanding our airline passenger services to include King Island, as we see this as a logical extension to our current Tasmanian network”.
I had heard that the service was to start on the 1st of July. Does anyone have further information?
