In their words

Skippers Aviation commenced operation in 1990, operating a fleet of three Cessna Conquest turbo prop aircraft and one Cessna 402C from the Flight Centre facility at the Perth domestic airport.

Over the years, Skippers have focused primarily on its core business of providing outstanding service and flexibility to the resource industry within Australia as well as Regulated Passenger Transport destinations; our key advantage is being equipped with modern aircraft especially suited to the rough airstrips and harsh conditions often found in remote locations.

Great experience flying with Skippers Aviation. Friendly, professional crew, smooth flight, and excellent service from check-in to arrival. Flights were well organised and on time. A dependable airline for regional travel that I'd happily use again.

I found the workers at Skippers very professional, efficient and friendly, it's amazing to see a small airline show great standards. Airlines like Skippers are the life blood of the small to large mining companies and I thank them for their dedication. What was equality amazing is that Skippers are giving women a go behind the cockpit, and the women that flew us clearly had an excellent flight skills and the flight felt very smooth. Keep up the great effort.

Skippers desperately needs to refurbish or replace its prop-planes. I can't speak for the jets but the dash-8's are at least 30 years old and the look and feel it - run-down, semi-broken and uncomfortable. They are by far the noisiest planes of any of the regional airlines (Cobham, Maroomba, Network aviation) I have flown for work. The worst part is the aircon barely works on these planes, some of the nozzles are broken so you can't point them at your self to cool down in summer when its 45 degrees, which means you end up stifiling in a sweat box for 30 minutes on the tarmac for a while after take off until the whole plane cools down. Other issues include some of the seats being broken and either don't decline properly or don't come back up, and the seat cover pockets have holes in them that drop your phone straight through onto the floor lol. The flights have mostly been on time which is about the only positive. Skippers please take note of this and improve your planes.

Good service. Planes a bit old. Flight always seems soo much better on the way to Perth.
