Qantas Flights Set to Boost Busselton Resort Bookings This Winter

The tourism landscape in Western Australia’s South West is on the brink of a significant shift. Busselton resorts (led by local favourite Amalfi Resort) poised to benefit from two major developments: the launch of direct Qantas flights and recent national recognition as the winner of the 7News Top Tourism Town Award. This national honour recognises towns dedicated to providing visitors with unique and memorable holiday experiences.

For travelers planning a coastal escape and resort operators alike, the timing couldn’t be better.

Direct Flights Make Busselton More Accessible Than Ever

Starting June 27, 2025, Qantas will operate three weekly flights from Perth to Busselton on Mondays, Fridays, and Sundays. This move transforms what was previously a three-hour drive into a short, convenient flight, which makes it ideal for weekend getaways, school holidays, and extended resort stays.

This increased accessibility is expected to drive demand from Queensland and other eastern states. The new air route aligns with whale-watching season and the winter school break, creating an ideal scenario for Busselton resorts to capitalise on a peak travel period.

National Recognition Fuels Interest

Key factors considered in the judging process (which relies heavily on public voting) included Busselton’s recent achievements, such as the launch of Jetstar’s direct air service from Sydney and the exciting development of Saltwater Busselton (the convention and performing arts centre set to open in 2026).

These developments reinforce Busselton’s growing reputation as a premier WA resort destination.

What This Means for Amalfi Resort Busselton

For Amalfi Resort, one of Busselton’s leading accommodation providers, the opportunity is clear. With upgraded amenities, family-friendly villas, and proximity to the beach and town center, Amalfi Resort is perfectly positioned to welcome a new wave of interstate guests.

Resort Manager Lorraine Roughton says, “These new Qantas flights eliminate a major travel barrier and open Busselton to a wider market. We’re already seeing increased interest for winter bookings.”

Roughton went on to say that people are often surprised at how large and well-appointed the villas are. From 1 bedroom deluxe apartments right through to 3-bedroom premier villas, Amalfi has villas to cater for up to 7 people, corporate travellers, and large multi-villa groups.

Planning for Increased Demand

Busselton resort operators are already preparing for an influx of visitors. The Qantas schedule, offering both weekend and Monday flights, caters to both leisure travelers and business visitors seeking longer stays.

This added convenience, combined with national award recognition, makes Busselton a strong contender for travelers choosing between destinations in 2025.
