Qantas heads back to Burnie
The Flying Kangaroo will launch direct flights from Burnie to Melbourne for the first time in 15 years to meet growing demand for travel within Australia.
From 21 June 2021, QantasLink will operate seven weekly return flights from Burnie to Melbourne with its 50-seat Q300 turboprop aircraft, adding 700 seats on the route each week.
QantasLink CEO John Gissing said the new route would create stronger connections for Tasmania’s north west coast.
“We’re pleased to be adding Burnie to our map again to help support growing demand and offer travellers and the business community more choice,” said Mr Gissing.
