Tiger heating up
There seems to be a buzz at the moment about Tiger
So many questions and so many people saying things that just have not been confirmed in the press.
Anyone heard anything?
Rumour has it Tiger is going to make a loss for the next couple of years until they expand and eat up so many routes, offer cheap fares, a good product and then...bang!
Newspapers and Tiger's web site show it will start with 5 aircraft, however heard that they are already planning 10
Salaries to be higher than Virgin and Jetstar, but they would have to be as news has it that no staff travel will be offered other than their own airline. Why would anybody move from Virgin where the salary will be less but overnights/allowances make up for much more and staff travel awesome. Jetstar employees even get to travel on other airlines I heard. Wow!
Do you really think people will move across? Think unless they offer Singapore Airlines benefits they can forget getting good crew. Singapore only owns 49% of Tiger so doubt it. One friend heard contracts will allow RYANAIR staff travel. Weird, why RYANAIR?
Has anybody seen their uniform? Web-site shows a girl with a yellow t-shirt that is it
Interesting times ahead I guess
