Rex is joining the #ArrivalRevival today, after unveiling plans to increase capacity and reinstate suspended services on key NSW regional routes from November 15.

Rex has announced it will be restarting key NSW regional routes from November 15, as well as announcing a range of sale fares, with no Christmas holiday blackout dates, to celebrate the re-opening.

Three flights a day will service both Sydney-Port Macquarie and Sydney-Coffs Harbour, with fares from $99 each way.

These $99 fares are on sale now until November 14 for travel up to April 30 next year unless sold out prior.

The $99 fare with no blackout dates is also available from Sydney to many NSW regional centres including Albury, Armidale, Dubbo, Griffith, Orange, Merimbula, Moruya and Wagga Wagga.

Rex says it will also significantly increase capacity on these routes from November 15 with daily return flights to Sydney replacing the two to three flights a week the airline operated to maintain essential services during lockdowns.

Additional services will be progressively added as demand for travel returns in the weeks and months ahead.

“Our commitment to remote and regional NSW communities has never been stronger and we are delighted we can now help even more family and friends re-connect and allow Christmas holidays to be booked with confidence,” Rex Deputy Chairman, the Hon John Sharp AM, said.

“The resumption of flights will also provide a much-needed boost to local economies, stimulate regional tourism and help businesses ravaged by the pandemic to recover more quickly.”

“Rex passengers can book with absolute confidence because they are protected by our unique Refund Guarantee policy against any COVID-related disruptions. And they know all Rex front-line staff, including our pilots and flights attendants, are fully vaccinated from 1 November which gives them even greater peace of mind,” Mr Sharp said.
