Jetstar have announced that the Whitsunday Coast Airport to Adelaide direct flight will soon be cancelled.
Since launching less than 12 months ago the flight has averaged at around 61% capacity and has not met the airline’s minimum requirements for long-term sustainability.
The final direct flight will operate on Wednesday 28 January.
A council spokesperson said that customers booked onto the Adelaide service have been re-accommodated on alternative flights.
Despite the cancellation of the Adelaide route, the Whitsunday Coast Airport continue to work with airline partners to expand services, including discussions for a new route planned for 2026.
