Australia's Airnorth plans to launch a service on the Darwin-Mt. Isa-Coolangatta route on 8 October.
It will operate an Embraer E-170 aircraft on the weekly service, says the carrier. If the route proves successful, the frequency will be increased, it adds.
Airnorth operates two E-170s, six Embraer EMB-120 Brasilias, and three Fairchild Metro 23s.
