These two aircraft will add to their growing fleet of Fokker F-50 and Fokker F-100 types.
There is some speculation about whether these 70 seat jets will operate on Alliance Airlines growing fly-in fly-out charter work, or be placed on commercial services on behalf of QantasLink. Currently, Alliance operate 2 of their Fokker F-100 aircraft almost daily for QantasLink on their Brisbane-Rockhampton-Brisbane and Brisbane-Mackay-Brisbane flights with up to 4 services a day and 3 services a day respectively.
It is an interesting announcement considering that Virgin Australia will shortly start regional flights out of Brisbane with their recently ordered ATR-72 aircraft.
