Eastern Australia Airlines
The airline was recognized and started operations in 1949. It operation began in Tamworth with only one flight and one pilot which is known as Tamworth Air Taxi Service, serving rural communities in New South Wales and Queensland. After 36 years of growth and uniting with many smaller commuter operators, this name was adopted in 1987. In 1988 Australian Airlines obtained 26% of Eastern Australian Airlines which was publicly launched from East-West Airlines, and also the airline became a completely owned subsidiary in 1991. Qantas airlines have obtained Australian Airlines in 1992.
In 2002, Qantas integrated its Mildura-based subsidiary Southern Australia Airlines with Eastern, the ensuing operation mistreatment the Eastern name.
In August 2008 it had been proclaimed that Eastern Australia would shortly start operative 72-seat Bombardier Dash eight Q400 craft on services to regional centres in New South Wales, supplementing services with smaller 50-seat Dash 8s and permitting the removal of 36-seat Dash 8s from service on some routes altogether with the retirement of all one hundred series Dash 8s.
