Alliance Airlines Destinations
Alliance operates contract charter flights primarily for the resources sector, usually into outback areas where skilled labour is in short supply.
Alliance Airlines currently flies from Townsville on behalf of Incitec Pivot Limited (to Phosphate Hill), MMG (to Century Mine), Xstrata (to Cloncurry, Queensland), BHP Billiton (to Cannington Mine) and CopperCo Ltd (to Mount Isa, Queensland).
Alliance Airlines currently flies from Brisbane on behalf of Alcan (to Gove), BHP Billiton (to Cannington Mine), Byrnecut (to Telfer, Western Australia) and Santos Ltd. (to Ballera).
In November 2006, Alliance Airlines commenced charter services from Perth to BHP Billiton's "Nickel West" operations at Mount Keith and Leinster, Western Australia.
In June 2007, Alliance commenced operations between Adelaide and Olympic Dam, South Australia using two Fokker 50 aircraft in support of BHP Billiton's fly-in/fly-out rosters. This service was originally marketed by Virgin Blue, but Qantas has taken over marketing of the service since December 2007, and seats can be purchased by the general public. Since 2007 a third Fokker 50 has been based at Adelaide to operate an Adelaide to Prominent Hill charter service in support of OZ Minerals' mine there. Alliance Airlines now has four Fokker 50 aircraft based in Adelaide to provide services to Olympic Dam, South Australia and Prominent Hill.
Charter services also extend from Brisbane to Canberra and the Australian Defence Forces use Alliance for charter flights to East Timor and the Solomon Islands.
About Alliance Airlines:
 
Alliance Airlines is a charter airline based in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It specialises in long-term contract charter to the mining and resources industry and governments in Australia, as well as ad-hoc charter operations and aircraft leasing to international airlines. Its main base is in Brisbane Airport, with hubs at Townsville Airport, Perth Airport and Adelaide Airport.
Alliance was established and started operations in early August 2002 when Brisbane-based Queensland Airline Holdings acquired the assets of the dormant Flight West Airlines, which had been established on 25 May 1987 and was liquidated in 2001. The airline is wholly owned by Queensland Airline Holdings and has 219 employees.
Alliance had wet-leasing contracts with Norfolk Jet Express until that airline was liquidated on 4 June 2005. For the first week after liquidation Alliance were used for services, but Qantas soon took over these services, using Air Nauru (now "Our Airline") aircraft. Alliance currently holds dry-leasing contracts with Air Niugini for Papua New Guinea and North Queensland services.
