Qantas commences non-stop services to Broome from Melbourne
Sydney, 27 November 2002
Qantas will operate twice weekly non-stop services to Broome from Melbourne for the season commencing 30 March until 26 October 2003.
Qantas Executive General Manager Sales and Marketing, John Borghetti said the services would be operated by the airline's fleet of Boeing 737-800 aircraft.
"These non-stop services will mean a flight time of approximately five hours.
"Customers can experience the beauty of Broome for the weekend or for a week-long stay with the flights timed for departures in the early evenings of Fridays and morning departures on Sundays," he said.
Mr Borghetti said the airline now operated 30 services and more than 2700 seats each week to the popular west-coast destination from Melbourne, Perth and Alice Springs.

:cool:
It is interesting that only last week, I was considering new thin routes that QF may open up. Mel-Bme wasn't one of these, but Syd-Bme was! Of the others, I considered re-opening up the Syd-Mky, Hba-Ool and Hba-Bne routes with 717s (the last two being my favourites of course!!!), as well as some like an Adl-Cns or Mel-Ayq or Syd-Isa, not necessarily using 717s. Other ideas???
