Just had a quick peruse of the QF,
VB and Rex websites to check prices SY-CB return, hypothetically wanting to fly on Friday...
QF $204
VB $225
REX $178
Although this is only for 1 trip, it is common for the carriers all to be very similar in price. So why exactly should the government, or anyone for that matter, choose
VB? Save money? It's just the usual sooking from Godfrey that for some reason the public seem to fall for.
Coming soon.... Virgin Business Class, complete with coin operated recline, personal confection vending machines and cask wine at $5 a cup
