Up & Away Adventures

Onboard the Outback Jet

When you board our immaculate Outback Jet you are stepping on to a sophisticated and high-performance touring vehicle. The Outback Jet is capable of cruising at speeds of over 300 knots (560kmph) coupled with the ability to land on short, remote runways. This is your key to unrivalled accessibility to remote wilderness areas, cattle stations the size of small countries and the real outback Australia.
 

But what’s more, every seat is the window seat and we rotate the seating so everyone gets a different perspective. With the ability to fly high and over bad weather, we also operate as low as 500ft above the ground, or, ‘low and slow’ when over landmarks such as The Lost City, Uluru, Wineglass Bay and the list is endless. You even get the chance to sit up in the flight deck with your Captain to experience the flight as ‘co-pilot’.
 

The Outback Jet  has a brand new leather interior which ranges from large executive chairs through to plush, fixed pitch seats all with super-comfy and hi-tech memory foam.
