What have you been smoking? At no point have they ever stated that they want to enter the Aus domestic market. I think in a livestream Greg said categorically it wouldn’t happen. Spare Capital??? Riiiight. They’re about to draw on the loan after burning through their reserves and you think they’ll plonk airbuses on the Aus domestic route with potentially 3 competitors....I think the focus right now is staying afloat.
