Discounted Flights, Tours Aim to Boost Broome Tourism

The discounted fares form part of the Cook Government’s economic diversification strategy, supporting regional tourism and businesses in Broome and the wider North West, following the recent closure of Jetstar Asia.
In 2024, Broome received close to 240,000 overnight visitors, the majority of whom were Australians.

As stated by Tourism Minister Reece Whitby:
“The Cook Government is committed to supporting Broome’s local tourism and hospitality businesses.
“Broome is one of WA’s most iconic and beloved destinations, and these additional discounted flights will drive even more visitors to the Kimberley, providing a much-needed tourism boost.
“While it was disappointing that the Jetstar Asia Broome to Singapore flights were cancelled, we’re reinforcing our commitment to enhancing our State’s regional connections.
“These discounts are yet another example of how we’re supporting regional tourism and diversifying our economy, and I encourage anyone thinking of heading to Broome to make that booking a reality to enjoy the fantastic Kimberley region of our State.”
As stated by Kimberley Minister Stephen Dawson:
“These discounted flights and tours are a great opportunity for people wishing to visit Broome and the Kimberley region.
“With its dramatic landscapes and unique experiences on offer, the Cook Government is proud to support the region’s tourism industry.
“Not only are these discounted airfares and experiences a win for visitors to the region but it’s also a win for regional businesses and tour operators.”
