Airnorth to trial extended Tuesday services
In support of feedback we have received from local residents, we have reviewed our schedule and are pleased to announce a trial extension to our Tuesday service.
Our aim with this trial is to assist delivery of Government and contracted services including visits by health specialists to provide services that are not available locally.
This Tuesday service will extend the time available in Nhulunbuy and surrounding communities by a further three hours for our passengers to deliver the above services, while still providing a same day return flight.
Airnorth’s Commercial team will monitor the uptake on this trial extension and should passenger demand be positive, will look at a more permanent schedule.
Effective from Tuesday 21 April, passengers can book our extended service online now at www.airnorth.com.au
