PER-LEA return. Perth quick and efficient check-in and no queues at security screening. Boarding by walking across tarmac. Flying north I was travelling on a F-100 jet, down they use a F-50 turboprop plane. Seat pitch is impressing. Catering okay and free of charge except if you'd like to drink beer or wine. FA attentive, friendly. For the (high) fare you pay, you get pretty good service. Check-in in Leamonth took ages due to a printer problem and there was no security screening in service which I found rather remarkable.

RDM-SLC-DEN. Not real happy with Skywest/Delta Connection on this route. At RDM, took agent a full 15 minutes to check me in, she continually was having to refer to "how to" manuals to guide her through the process. Late incoming flight causing late departure, was not told upon checkin, nor was this reflected on monitors in the gate area. Later, an announcement made that those with tight connections in SLC should come to make new connections, however, my ticket showed RDM-SLC-DEN as a simple stop in SLC, same flight number to DEN, single boarding pass. You guessed it, it was one of those flights that shows up as a one-stop but is actually a different plane (I knew airlines did this on intl connections, but didn't think that the regionals did it too.) Skywest ground staff in SLC were very shaky: three seeming trainees, one slightly-more knowledgable one who had to guide all of them through the various situations they were trying to rebook.

Perth to Esperance return with SkyWest and most impressed. The breakfast going was real food, fresh and tasty. On the return mid morning flight back to Perth, the muffin was tasted just out of the oven. Nice coffee, not bitter at all. Attendants were efficient and friendly. Legroom the best of any domestic airline in Oz.

Perth to Darwin, via Broome. Fokker 100 was clean, quiet and comfortable. The cabin crew were polite, friendly, and helpful. The food among the best airline food I have tasted. There was a large selection of alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks available. Overall I had a highly enjoyable experience, and would not hesitate to recommend flying with Skywest in Western Australia!

Perth to Exmouth. Very friendly crew and a good flight with the captain indulging in an overfly of Exmouth bay for a spot of whale watching!! Hot meal was supplied on the outward trip which was better than some other Carriers travelled. Highly recommended.

Had a flight with Skywest from Perth to Broome, it was one of the best flights I have ever had. Flight attendants were excellent, food services was very nice with the full tray that included very fresh food. The FA’s came around with trays of drinks all the time, and the nice touch was when we boarded at Broome after take off the came around with ice hand tows, as it was very hot and humid at broom. What a 5 star service, and I love there Fokker 100 aircraft, very neat with all leather seats and the most leg room of any airline in Australia.

The Flight Attendants were very professional, efficient, warm, always smiling and extremely attentive. I felt like a guest rather than just one of their customers. I highly recommend flying with them if you come to visit Western Australia!
