History:

Kendell Airlines was once Australia's largest regional airline. It serviced major regional centers in New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania from Melbourne, Adelaide, and Sydney as well as working with Ansett Australia in providing the Capital Shuttle between Sydney and Canberra.

Kendell was placed into administration with its parent company, Ansett Australia Group in 2001. Unlike Ansett Australia, Kendell continued to operate a limited schedule, and also filled a temporary void left by Ansett Australia by flying between Sydney-Canberra-Melbourne and Melbourne-Mt Gambier-Adelaide.

In 2002, Kendell, and fellow Ansett subsidiary, Hazelton Airlines, were sold to a consortium known as Australia wide Airlines. In August 2002, Hazelton and Kendell, under the ownership of Australia wide Airlines , merged to create Regional Express which operate 12 of Kendell's Saab 340 aircraft.
