The numbers were run by Singapore a few years ago. Tiger couldn't turn a profit as standalone entity unless they had 30 aircraft.

Two options. Close it, or get Virgin to run it on cheap end of lease 737s. Even with sky high fuel prices, the numbers still favour these 737s which are being leased next to nothing.

The writing has been on the wall for at least 7 years.
