Alliance Airlines Fokker Embraer E-190 VH-UYN and Fokker F-70 VH-QQY at Mackay Airport on NRL Charters

On Saturday 18 September, another pair of Alliance Airlines jets were noted visiting Mackay Airport, bringing players and support staff to the sugar city for the National Rugby League (NRL) semi final game between the Penrith Panthers and Parramatta Eels.

Again, it’s unclear which team travelled on which flight, but Alliance Airlines Embraer E-190 VH-UYN touched down at Mackay Airport again from Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast as UTY3384.

And Alliance Airlines Fokker F-70 touched down at Mackay Airport from Brisbane and the Gold Coast as UTY3392.

After the game, both Alliance Airlines aircraft departed Mackay Airport, with VH-UYN returning to the Sunshine Coast and then Brisbane but as UTY3385, while VH-QQY departed direct to Brisbane but as UTY3393.
