Alliance put on extra flights to Roxby from December A
l l i a n ce A i rl i n e s h a s responded to demand and will be putting on two extra flights on Wednesday and Thursdays as from December 1. General Manager of Alliance Airlines for SA, Mr. Bryan O’Neill told The Monitor this week, “After enduring the cessation of the expansion project team (February 2009) which decreased weekly BHP Billiton staff travelling over the Adelaide - Olympic Dam route by almost 30%; the GFC, and the
Clark shaft incident, our load factor over the last few months has returned to a consistent level. That provides Alliance the opportunity to further support BHP Billiton Olympic Dam by adding more flights to our base schedule.” E f f e c t i v e We d n e s d a y 1 s t December 2010, we will a d d th e fo l l o w i n g f l i g ht s : Wednesday QF2608 ADL OLP 1030 1200 QF2609 OLP ADL 1230 1400 Thursday QF2616 ADL OLP 1530 1700
QF2617 OLP ADL 1730 1900 “The Wednesday flight is intended to support additional contractors travelling to and from site on the busiest day of the week as well as assisting interstate connectivity. “Passenger loads on our Thursday afternoon and Friday morning flights from Olympic Dam are currently very high and another flight to improve availability was necessary” said Mr. O’Neill. “I fully expect more flights to be added before the end of the first quarter 2011.”
