JQ and Hayman Island
I noticed that Hayman Island was on JQ's booking engine so selected a dummy flight in October for Sydney-Hayman Island which came up with the following schedule.

Even before then Adam, goes back to Ansett, sometime before that I think it was an S-61 from the main land and Hamilton, but I stand to be corrected on that. Regards David

I spent a wonderful week on Hamilton Island last October and noticed that many arriving passengers walked from the airport terminal straight over to the wharf to catch their luxury launch to Hayman Island, about an hour away.
My first visit to the Whitsundays and it won't be my last. A fantastic part of the world.

Of course, if you want true style, there's always this way to get to Hayman Island,
 .Sure as hell aint gonna land an A320 on that,  .Attachment 618 Mick Last edited by Mick F; 4th June 2011 at 05:26 PM.

Yes before Hamilton Island Airport opened in 1984 It was a Ansett S-61 service from Prosperpine? (I'm pretty sure it was Prosperpine) Jason

I have a feeling that when Ansett owned Hayman the boat was called the "Sun Goddess" and the boat was decked out in Ansett livery. I'm sure someone will know for sure. In 2004 I flew Brisbane to Hamilton then went via the launch to Hayman. What suprised me was that I earned Qantas Frequent Flyer points for the boat sector!

Damian,
you are correct. The "Sun Goddess" was in Ansett livery. There was a second smaller launch in the livery as well back when I went there in 1998. Boarding passes were issued to you when you checked out, and Hayman visitors had access to the upstairs lounge at HTI. I've also earned QFF points when I returned in 2002, and also on a launch from HTI to Daydream island and a separate trip. From memory QF also codeshared on the launches to South Molle, Shute Harbour, and one of the islands south of Hamilton whose name has slipped my memory. Air Whitsunday provided seaplane charter flights to HIS from a number of different locations, and also trips to the outer reef. I've logged a return flight from HIS to Hardy Reef on VH-PGA

Unfortunately not - I set up the QF check in system up there (piggy backing on the thru the AN system) and got to go to HIS on a number of occasions thru work.
Damn shame I never got to enjoy the place - but that launch trip was something else. Do they still play that Enya song Orinoco Flow when departing HTI?
