Icthys contractors are holding seats on most flights to DRW at the moment. Until bed allocations at Howard Springs Village are known new mobilisations can not be confirmed until often 24 hours before travel.

I have been flying into and out of DRW to all ports over the past 2 years, most flights are 90% plus full, I would be surprised if yours does not end up that way particularly given dry season ramp up.
