Budget airline Jetstar has boosted Queensland's whale-watching capital of Hervey Bay by starting regular flights to the popular tourist destination.
The first flight from Sydney is scheduled to touch down at Hervey Bay on Friday following an extensive airport upgrade.
Jetstar chief executive Alan Joyce described the destination, a gateway to the world-heritage listed Fraser Island, as an exciting addition to its domestic network.
"Fraser Island and the Fraser Coast region is one of Australia's most iconic and popular tourist locations," Mr Joyce said.
Four return flights a week will operate from Sydney to Hervey Bay, the 17th direct service on Jetstar's list.
The company will initially operate the route with 125-seat configured Boeing 717s.
Hervey Bay Mayor Ted Sorenson said the flights would give the community a "tourism boost we have never experienced before".
I have know for a long time that virgin is going to hervey, but not jetstar
