says:More directs from Gold Coast is great news because no one likes the drive to/from Bris Ap.
pete
says:it would be great if Jetstar continued on to Broome from either Ayers Rock or Alice Springs. Airfares have become very expensive to and from Broome. Tourism in the Kimberley needs affordable air connections.
