One day when Virgin and Qantas don't need the extra capacity that Alliance provides, then they might be in some trouble, until then, they will continue to do well.

They will also need to replace the Fokkers at some point in their medium term future.

Alliance Aviation Services has reaffirmed plans to add nine aircraft to its operating fleet during the 2018/19 financial year.

Speaking at the company’s annual general meeting in Brisbane on October 30, Alliance managing director Scott McMillan said the airline had taken three aircraft so far in the current financial year, with two more due to arrive by December 31 2018.

“The remaining four aircraft are scheduled to complete their entry into service maintenance checks towards the end of this financial year,” McMillan told shareholders in prepared remarks.

“These additions will bring the operating fleet size to 42 aircraft which we consider will meet current and future demand.”

The company ended 2017/18 with 33 aircraft, comprising five Fokker 50s, nine Fokker 70s and 19 Fokker 100s, up from 29 aircraft a year earlier.
