Default QF Seasonal Service to Mount Hotham?

I am just a study abroad student for 1 more year here and always read the advertisement for the Snowy Mountains which is really awesome and want to go.

However, REX terminated their seasonal service to Cooma last year which already lost my dream to Snowy Mountains except taking a painful red-eye bus ride (Which I really hate, bumpy seat no service and waste my time )

I just read from Wiki there is a seasonal service by QFLink from Sydney to Mount Hotham, where the Snowy Mountains is which would greatly saves my time. However I can't find it on Qantas website. Can anyone here show me the schedules and service days which Qantas will fly to Mount Hotham during snow times? And how can I book them?

Meanwhile, planning another trip from Sydney to the Canberra Fluoride 2008, that would be a day return so I cannot waste my time on getting there. I haven't been on a Tubroprop aircraft before. What is the difference bewteen taking a Bombardier Q400 and a Boeing 737-400, and taking the recent Qantas chaos into account, you would think taking a Bombardier Q400 or B737-400 would ensure a on time flight without technical problem for me?

Thank you very much and would really appreciated.

Correct Brad,

We're all leaving to go to Virgin, Cathay and Dragonair.
