Are they able to get any of Tiger’s Sydney slots for these flights?
Tiger had around 20 slot pairs daily for Sydney.
At one point TT were carrying 4000 pax a day between ML and SY. Considerable opportunity once the market picks up again for Rex to nab some.
Alan will try to sink it, as all those 4000 punters will be wanted to help gives some upside to its failed taxpayer funded Avalon experiment. Jetstar never flew Tulla to Sydney before Tiger started it in 2009. They ran about 10 flights a day from Avalon. I would imagine they would be looking at potentially pulling back Tulla and increasing Avalon.
