The airport is serviced twice daily by Virgin Blue who utilise 78-seat
Embraer 170s to Sydney-they are the only airline to operate jet services
to the airport; QantasLink who utilise a combination of 50 seat Dash 8-300s
and 72 seat Dash 8-400s to Sydney; Regional Express (REX) who utilise
36 seat Saab 340s on services to Sydney and Melbourne and Brindabella
Airlines who utilise 19 seat Metroliners to Canberra.
Virgin Blue launched services to Albury on 5 February 2008 with double-daily
Embraer 170 services-one of its first new ports served by the aircraft.
They were the first (and still are the only) airline to operate jet services
to the airport. Since the launch of services, fares to and from the airport
have been reduced significantly. The airline has said it will launch new
routes and more services out of Albury should a need be apparent, yet
as of April 2010, no new services have been launched.[1] Following the
launch of the service, the airline put 1,000 seats on the route on sale
for 1 cent-the cheapest fare ever offered into the airport.
The airport is also served by charter, freight, agricultural, and general
aviation aircraft.
