GB, I think 20 additional 737 airframes are still in order. Thats assuming all the 734s go, and thats not happening yet. So lots of additional 737 slots coming.

Sonny , there is lots of capacity potential on mainline domestic ops.
Load factors are high already and there is growth for full service operations all over the country. PER KTA MCY ASP AYE , trans Tasman, regional WA , not to mention International ops. Marketed properly, we could fill 20 additional 737s easy.

With Tiger VB and JQ all competing, I don't think there is as much slack to take up on the LCC end of the market.
