Rex Airlines takes delivery of additional Boeing 737 aircraft

Rex has taken delivery of another Boeing 737-800NG,  bolstering its regional fleet. This is the seventh Boeing 737 to be added to Rex’s Air Operator’s Certificate and will enter service in September.

The addition of this extra aircraft will enable Rex to add additional capacity on the ‘Golden Triangle’ between Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne.

“Our seventh aircraft allows us to meet the ever-increasing demand for Rex’s services given the shocking reliability on both Qantas and Virgin Australia,” Deputy Chairman, the Hon John Sharp AM, said.

“Demand for Rex flights is so great that we are urgently looking for another two Boeing 737- 800NGs which we hope to deploy by Q2 – Q3 of this Financial Year.”
