Whilst Rex is only three years old, their roots, culture, practices and commitment go well back to the 1950's; the dawn of regional air services in Australia. They are the result of a merger of Hazelton and Kendell two successful regional airlines. Inherited from these great aviation pioneers, Max & Laurel Hazelton and Don & Eilish Kendell, is the conviction that their heart is in the country and that by providing reliable services, fairly priced tickets and most importantly warm country hospitality, a regional air service can and will grow and prosper.

Since August 2002, Rex has lived this philosophy and the bush has embraced the airline as its own, making Rex one of the fastest growing of Australia's major airlines, with passenger numbers growing 75% since our first year of operations in FY 02/03. Rex now carries over a million passengers on some 50,000 flights annually, resulting in net profit after tax of $11.3M on the back of $137.1M in revenue.
