Alliance Airlines (QQ, Brisbane International) has signed a multi-year partnership agreement with JTB Corporation in which the Australian operator will provide charter capacity to JTB, a Japanese tour operator.
Under the terms of the deal, the first tour will commence in April this year and will involve Alliance Airlines providing JTB with daily return flights from each of Gold Coast Coolangatta, Cairns, and Brisbane International to Ayers Rock.
"The partnership will allow JTB to develop a range of tours throughout Australia visiting some wonderful and unique destinations in every state," Lee Schofield, CEO of Alliance Airlines, said during the signing ceremony in Tokyo. “Alliance was specifically suited to cater to JTB Corp with Fokker jets able to transport up to 100 passengers. In addition, Alliance’s VIP Fokker Aircraft provide a unique opportunity for high-end customers and corporations to visit Australia in true style."
Alliance Airlines also operates FIFO charter for and on behalf of largescale mining firms as well as regular passenger flights from Brisbane to Bundaberg, Gladstone, and Port Macquarie. Operationally, it employs twenty-three Fokker 100s, five Fokker 50s, and thirteen Fokker 70s.
