Our Airline set for return to OZ

Talks are apparently going on between ON and the Marshallse and Nauruan Governments re an October restart of services BNE NAN TRW INU MAJ on a weekly basis.

The NAN stop will only be every 2nd week.

I am amazed QF or DJ haven't looked at this one considering the contractural fares into and out of INU that could be had servicing the refugees that will soon be there. The Marshalls are also a decent destination with big dollars to be had from US Military based there and the only viable flights to Australia being 3 or 4 mind bending stops to GUM and then a flight to CNS plus domestics to anywhere else here. Fares aren't pretty either.

Seems an opportunity missed.

Best all
