VA still have that AOC on ice. It depends on Rex owners, share holders, PAG if they want to sell the 737 operation to Bain.
Buy the operation save the crews, save the jobs and knocks out the opposition. Long shot yes, though something must give.
Bain is very disciplined about how they manage their VA investment. They have resisted being rushed into making decisions about lounges, catering etc. They are not likely to deviate now and be distracted into saving ZL's jet operation. It suits them for ZL to leave the market which will allow fares to stabilise (upwards) once the domestic borders reopen.
