Bonza has launched a new route from Sunshine Coast Airport to Melbourne (Avalon). Onboard the inaugural service were myriad local foodies and businesses from the Sunshine Coast and wider region, keen to showcase their products to the Melbourne market and collaborate with Victoria’s renowned food producers.

“We know that Victorians love food and fresh produce, our beautiful beaches and breath-taking hinterland and with the start of services from Melbourne (Avalon), more Victorians can discover and explore all our region has to offer,” said Andrew Brodie, CEO Sunshine Coast Airport. “The Sunshine Coast is a highly sought-after holiday destination for Victorians, and being able to fly directly out of Melbourne (Avalon) into the Sunshine Coast, will make travel so much easier for people who live in Greater Melbourne. Similarly, people who have friends or family in Victoria, now have greater options for travel as Bonza will be operating three flights to Melbourne (Avalon) a week. This new route is also great news for Sunshine Coast locals who love their sport or who want to spend time enjoying the incredible foodie culture that Melbourne is known for.”

Sunshine Coast to Melbourne (Avalon) is one of the 10 routes that have never been serviced before.

“Avalon is the perfect gateway to a wide range of holiday experiences including Melbourne city, Geelong and the Great Ocean Road,” said Tim Jordan, CEO Bonza. “Likewise, Victorians can now fly direct from Avalon to the Sunshine Coast to visit loved ones or take a well-earned break.”

The new Bonza route from Sunshine Coast Airport to Melbourne (Avalon) was welcomed with a spectacular celebration.
