Abstract
The past twelve months have been among the most interesting and turbulent in the 30 year history of Australia’s controversial Two Airline Policy. The domestic airline establishment, TAA, Ansett, the Federal Government and the Department of Transport Australia (DoTA), have been an empire under seige for the past year. The Government of Western Australia has been in the vanguard of the attack on entrenched air transport policies and the system which has evolved under them. The main thrust of the State’s attack has been directed at the high prices of long distance air travel within Australia.
