Qantas will launch a new route between Perth and Busselton in June, connecting the WA hub to the stunning Margaret River region.
From 27 June, flights will run on Mondays, Fridays, and Sundays, aligning with the Australian winter school holidays and the whale-watching season. With over 31,000 seats available annually, the route is expected to attract domestic and international travellers seeking to explore the renowned wine region, pristine beaches and natural attractions.
“We’re committed to supporting regional tourism and are thrilled to be growing our regional network by launching a new route into the spectacular Margaret River,” QantasLink CEO Rachel Yangoyan said.
“Famous for its wineries, crystal clear waters and whale watching, these new flights are set to make the region even more accessible for Australians and international holidaymakers travelling through Perth.”
Following the success of Jetstar’s direct flights from Sydney and Melbourne into Busselton, the new service will improve accessibility for travellers from other major cities, including Brisbane and Adelaide. International visitors flying into Perth will also benefit from easier connections to the popular tourism hotspot.
Flights are on sale from today with launch fares starting at $149. The route will be serviced by a 100-seat QantasLink Fokker F100 aircraft.
