The remaining Tiger Airbus fleet is relatively young and would probably command too high of a price premium to go to VARA, who essentially get the high cycle low lease cost frames. The aircraft already gone to VARA cost a third to lease compared to the rest of the Tiger fleet. There was a Tiger batch delivered until 04/05 ex Singapore then the next lot is 08 onwards build with new upgrades. These are highly sought after frames globally, especially the last couple delivered.

Think back to the start. They started leisure routes then went after the triangle. On time performance went out the door with that also. ASP/MCY/MKY/ROK/LST.
