I use this service all the time as I live in Griffith, but I just can’t justify Qantas. If I fly interstate I go to Canberra and use virgin (for velocity) but it’s a great service for a quick trip to Sydney

Need to serve the big bosses with their plantations. :) Nice video! You think they’d upgrade these planes with larger ones or no need?

No need it’s only meant for regional ports won’t be changing them anytime soon

Great review Luke, that's a rediclouous amount of snacks you got offered there! I agree about the security lack there off - meanwhile in NZ you can get Dash 8 -400 and ATR 72 flights right out of the major city airports with no security screening (in theory aircraft under 90 seats don't require security!)

In europe we have a bit akward relationship with the dash 8 (The video from Aalborg explains It).

They must have shoved all the extra food onto the passengers to make up for the 3hr delay.

Slight miss - you said the runway was 1704ft it’s actually 1704meters. Comes out to 5591ft (just over a mile).

In my opinion I feel like every airport around the world should have security now you can't really do much with a Dash 8 but by the looks of it you could get a weapon onto that plane and then use it on another flight with a bigger plane obviously there are still precautions but I feel like every airport should have security

This is quite excessive service for this flight length, in my opinion this is the amount of food you would get in Economy on a 2 hour flight lol.

What a ridicules amount of on-board food. I love it! You would be lucky to get a bottle of water on a flight that length here in the US.

Can’t believe there is no security in Griffith. If someone wanted to connect directly onto another Qantas flight could they do that? Avoiding security all together 🧐🧐🧐
