$5 FARES <img src="eek.gif" border="0"> ....and Ansett hasn't started operations under FLEW Syn., yet. Still, they said they expected to lose money for the first 12 months.

I wonder what Brett and Dickie have got waiting for them on Feb. 1st??? <img src="confused.gif" border="0">

Don't complain about it, grab the cheap tickets while they're available.

Can't quite follow your reasoning here Alpha41,
"All VB have done in this country is bring down wages by getting desperate people (eg. who???} to work for peanuts and compromise air safety (how???} by starting a price war they cant win" (I don't believe $5 tickets are a "price war" - it's an obviously unsustainable figure - however, I guess VB's Marketing section believes it's worth it)
