The sweet taste of Qld

CAIRNS Airport celebrated the introduction of Skytrans Airlines’ first services to the Whitsunday Coast and Rockhampton this week, with executives savouring the sweet moment with a plethora of cakes.

The new services will operate five times per week and link three key tourist destinations.

“The introduction of new services like these, offers a muchneeded boost to our aviation recovery and will go some way to supporting tourism operators across both regions,” Cairns Airport said in a statement.

The launch is the latest move from Qld-based Skytrans which lodged a tender to operate govtfunded routes in Jul (TD 27 Jul).
