Newcastle to Hobart Takes Off: Direct Flights Now Make Tasmania Closer Than Ever

A Seamless Connection Between Newcastle and Hobart

Travel between New South Wales and Tasmania just got easier with Newcastle Airport’s exciting new direct flights to Hobart. Starting 2 December and running until 21 April, travellers can now enjoy direct services every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. This new route opens the door to Tasmania’s stunning landscapes, vibrant markets, and world-class produce – without the hassle of detours or long drives.

No Sydney Stopovers, No Stress

For years, Novocastrians heading to Tasmania have had to make the trek south via Sydney or take on the long M1 drive. Now, with direct flights departing from Newcastle Airport, travellers can skip the congestion and reclaim their mornings. Simply park right out the front, breeze through check-in, and board your flight to Hobart in comfort and ease.

Explore Tasmania’s Natural and Culinary Delights

Tasmania is renowned for its breathtaking wilderness, charming towns, and thriving food scene. From wandering Salamanca Market in Hobart to exploring the rugged peaks of Mount Wellington or sampling artisan cheeses and wines in the Huon Valley, every trip offers a feast for the senses. These direct flights make it easier than ever to explore the island’s unique mix of nature, culture, and cuisine – whether you’re escaping for a weekend or embarking on a longer Tasmanian adventure.

A Boost for Regional Tourism and Convenience for Locals

The new Newcastle-Hobart connection marks another milestone in Newcastle Airport’s ongoing expansion and its commitment to supporting regional travel. The service not only enhances convenience for Hunter residents but also invites Tasmanians to discover Newcastle and the wider Hunter region’s beaches, vineyards, and laid-back lifestyle. It’s a win for both regions, strengthening tourism and business links between the mainland and the island state.
