Earlier this morning Qantas announced a new seasonal Adelaide to Albury route and a boost to Albury-Brisbane services.
From 8 July to 25 September 2022, the national carrier will operate two weekly return flights between Adelaide and Albury.
In reponse to strong demand, Qantas will also increase return services between Albury and Brisbane from 7 to 10 each week.
AlburyCity Deputy Mayor Steve Bowen said the announcements are a huge win for both the community and local businesses, with Albury now connected to four capital cities.
“The Adelaide to Albury route will open up our region up to a whole new group of travellers, as well as allowing our community to make the jump over to Adelaide in record time.”
“The additional services to Brisbane are also a huge win for those looking to escape the winter months for the coast, as well as bringing more people to our beautiful city and surrounding visitor experiences,” he said.
