Fleet

All Australis flights are operated with modern, state-of-the-art aircraft, to ensure maximum comfort, safety and efficiency for our Guests.

Short and medium-haul

BAe Avro RJ85 and RJ100

One of the most successfull and most comfortable regional jets ever built, allows an unmatched operational flexibility due to its short take off and landing characteristics, its operating range and its cruising speed. The ideal plane for Australis' domestic network with short field airports and long distances to be covered which resulted in this plane being the best choice over a turboprop. All of our Avro Regional Jets are configured in a two class layout.
