Fly-in fly-out services to escalate on the Sunshine Coast in 2012


Sunshine Coast Council are in discussions with several unnamed mining companies and airlines to increase services and offer more employment to residents.
The news follows mining giant Rio Tinto's move to increase its fly-in, fly-out services to four times a week through locally based aviation company Skytrans.
Council is talking to several mining companies and other airlines at the moment, but are not in a position to say who or when it will happen.
The additional services go with council's development of the Resource Sector Action Plan, which aims to support growth and economic development in the mining sector and the local community.
This growth will depend on partnerships across the public and private sector to deliver quality accommodation options, transport connectivity, a skilled and ready workforce, and business location that attract resource industry-related organisations.
It's an overarching perspective of how to engage the Sunshine Coast with the resource industry and to take advantage of the mining boom despite no mines being situated here.
