Air services between a number of major Aboriginal communities in the Kimberley region have been secured for a further 18 months, with the appointment of Aviair to operate regular public transport (RPT) air services between Kununurra, Halls Creek and Balgo until 30 June 2025.
The appointment is the result of an open, competitive, tender process and will allow Aviair exclusive rights to continue operating on the route, which the company has serviced since it was first established in 2018. The agreement includes an option to extend a further 12 months.
