Will Remain
Qantas has decided not to de rive Norfolk Island of its ortnightly DC4 service between Australia and New Zealand. It is tow unlikely that either TA.A rr Ansett-ANA will be invited o take over the service.
This possibility was on the ■ards because of the increased mrden placed on Qantas with he removal of its DC4 services n P-NG. It is uneconomic for Qantas to operate only one 'ortnightly DC4, although the company is already being granted a £20,000 a year subsidy l o keep the NI service going.
The Minister for Aviation, Senator Paltridge, told the Nor folk Island Council in August, In answer to a question, that he iid not think either PAA or TAI would be interested in ex tending their services to Norfolk.
