WA-owned Nexus Airlines will cease its route connecting Broome, Kununurra and Darwin, alluding to a lack of state support after its US-owned competitor priced it out of the route.
The boss of a rapidly expanding Western Australian regional airline wants to unlock Broome's potential as a home for the Pilbara's fly-in, fly-out miners.
Nexus Airlines has been launched to expand the Western Australian Inter-Regional Flight Network, bolstered by a $4 million investment from the state government.
