This route supported 2 operators for many years.Originally Ansett and TAA ,then Ansett and East-West Airlines.But you need a schedule that includes an overnight stop.

Childish comment.

Ansett was brought undone by Ables going on a spending spree in Toulouse. TAA became Australian and was then gobbled up by Qantas and East-West airlines was a great airline gobbled up by Ansett. All provided good services over a long period of time.

it's always entertaining watching a blue shirt have a spray about his now utterly defunct airline.

How long till the last of you lot retire? Will be no shortage of parties to attend.

But didn’t the chairman say the the entire SE operation was unprofitable and likely to be shutdown unless the pilots agree to their ‘offer’?

das Uber idiot, you’re not too bright sunshine. Wrong coloured shirt. My heritage is Air New Zealand and I’m long retired after a perfect career that was well remunerated. How’s your superannuation account going, sport?

You can’t be referring to me as I’m happy with the length of my dick and I don’t need to engage in any measuring contest to prove my worth. I will leave that to you and Uber. Cheers

So what your saying is that you don't need to be a plonker to be an Air New Zealand pilot.. but it helps...

Sorry, I don’t buy into racist comments.

When I was with ANZ we referred to Australian pilots as our ‘brothers across the ditch’. We may have flown for different airlines in different countries, but we always felt bonded as Pilot ‘brothers’. Doesn’t look like that comradeship exists anymore. Real shame. Hell, one of my most favourite memories from flying was being stranded in a location with two KLM pilots whom I had never met before. Two days and 3 nights of unbridled drinking, debauchery (I am trying to keep the story clean for the ‘woke’ fraternity), and then more drinking. Bonded by the epaulette.

A possible dilemma in the not too distant future?

Although the media release yesterday advised more services than pre covid as they “Return to profitability” and that “We are confident that FY23 will see a great improvement in the financial performance of our regional operations”

Seems misaligned with imminent mass redundancies on the Saab fleet.

This kids, is why you shouldn't lick the skydrol during the walk around,

Now, you were about to enlighten us all about what race 'New Zealand' is?

Wow! P77 gives a little bit of history and a completely inaccurate nasty little statement is made. I doubt anyone flying for the crap organisations tarted up as airlines nowadays will ever get to experience the pleasure that used to be had flying for a domestic Australian airline.

Sadly no it doesnt. One could draw the conclusion the redundancies is what will help drive the return to profitability.

They're struggling to crew flights as it is. The redundancies are purely a threat to EBA negotiations. Comes around every 4 years.

Rex signing a deal with multiple travel agency’s. A 10 yr deal with flight centre ensuring Rex will be flight centers partner of choice. Surely this should prop up the 73 loads, Rex seem confident it will anyway. .

“The agreements are expected to result in a more than doubling of Rex’s annual domestic jet revenues in FY2023 compared to its current annualized domestic jet revenues with no increase in fleet size. Revenue on its regional revenue is also expected to be improved”.
