Other factors beyond the airline’s control have also hurt. Inbound tourism has suffered from a strong Aussie dollar and a sluggish global economy.
These factors also affect other operators. The high dollar and weak overseas markets means outbound tourism is strong. A weak excuse.
High oil prices are relentless
How is that high dollar hurting again? Fairly steady in the last FY.



I saw AJ on the 7:30 report blaming the high dollar. Why did Leigh not ask him about the dollar being a benefit in the case of fuel, spare parts and leases?
