    You are asian, you flew on board a plane in Australia in october 2020 during the pandemic and not wearing a face mask? how come you didn't get booted off the plane? lol.

      That’s the most ridiculous comment I’ve seen so far
      Can’t you see even the flight crew didn’t wear a mask in October 2020? What’s the point of wearing a mask when Canberra and Qld were covid free at that time
      This is not America

    The best aircraft at Canberra airport can usually be found on the other side of the airport :) For those reading, not in the know, the airport is shared with RAAF 34 Sqn, and is thus a combined commercial and military airport. It is known as Defence Establishment Fairburn, and RAAF 34 Sqn is the VIP sqn, who flies the PM, and his mates, places, as well hosting foreign dignitaries. Yes even Air Force One lands there when the POTUS visits Australia. As you can imagine, the place is crowded with plane spotters when it comes in.

    I had not heard about Alliance Airlines before this review. Still love the old planes. Canberra Airport upgraded to accommodate 8 million passengers, is there really that many people travelling to Canberra each year? That suprised me. Love your Flamingo T-shirt👍. Great review. Cheers.

    Thanks Rory, this was just the video that I was looking for! I'm keen to book a flight from Canberra to Cairns via Sunshine Coast next month but haven't flown with this airline before. Since its quite normal now for flights to be cancelled or rescheduled due to COVID and if there are few passengers traveling, I was skeptical about booking this flight. There seem to be a good no. of passengers travelling so I'm more confident now that the flight will take off as planned. Cheers

    Recently it has come to our attention concerning that this airline has ordered compulsory vaccinations for flight crews. Without giving people another choice to test for Covid-19, these actions promotes segregation, restricts freedom of movement and is a violation of human rights. We will personally boycott your company and will tell friends and family to do the same. We will also mention it on our social media sites and encourage others to follow. We will also encourage people to make formal complaints to human rights and law organizations worldwide.
