Name that airline competion
Come on guys an girls....lets have some fun. With the imminent official announcement from QF about their LCC a/c type (gee wizz...I can't wait), I wonder if naming their new venture will also be a part of it - or will that be drawn out for yet more intrigue(?) and another fun, exciting announcement further down the track (oups, that line sounds like someone else talking). To start y'all thinking (although I'd quite like Skimpy to be selected) how about Shaft (in line with the thinking behind their current flagship rego .....EBA). Or "Geoff" (nah...., not really - it ain't three letters like TED. The hosties could be called Dixie Chicks though.) Or "STPO" (Amercian for STOP) and the antithesis to "GO" which we all know went top down/bottoms up. As for a suggestion for a prize to the winning entry, how about two weeks unpaid leave shovelling cement/carrying bricks on some sort of deserted island off the QLD coast. You get the drift......I look forward to reading all your inspirational replies...!

Hey why dont they call "TAB air".
They could do a deal with the TAB and have Sky Sports and the races on the TV screens live. Also have a punters Bar in the back and possible bikini shows in the back for bored punters on their last buck. Make the fares reall cheap, but make up the difference with the Bookies box takings . What ya think? :ok: I think im on to something. Hey if theres "Hooters Air". Maybe we could have " Crazy Horse Airlines". Ofcourse the theme may not suit all genders, Im sure theyd get a following. Id definitely pay 60 bucks to get in :ok: :E :E Sheep |
Lets see. Looking at other LCC names, they're catchy one-word titles. "Go", "Buzz" etc
What we need is something Australian and vaguely suggestive of Women. I know, "Barbie" K |
SLAGIATT!!!!
:hmm: |
What about..
BOUNCE Vaguely QF, Vaguely suggestive, and as stupid as all the other choices. SG :) |
What about "crikey", "ansett reloaded" or "compass 3 (the rise of the machines)"?
|
Kanga 767, are you really Australian??? Barbie, is as american a name as you can get, if you were to follow your guidelines there is only one option for a name and that would have to be,
SHEILA :E |
.....Might go throw some snags on the Shiela....:}
AND as fiercely Northern Territorian as I am, I don't want the first aircraft named after some queensland crocodile dude, I want the first aircraft named "Amanda V" K |
How about
"MATE " which stands for "Merely an Australian Transport Enterprise" or "BLASTAIR" which stands for "Black Stump Airlines" or "WOMBATAIR" which stands for 'The Airline that digs itself a hole" Just a thought! ;) ;) |
I must admit I like Eurocap's "Wombatair", it has that true dinky die ring about it.....where employement conditions in aviation are about to be burried in a hole!
|
what about "Choice-bro Airlines" , we could have "hey cuz class" for economy with an in-flight centre-link processing service to make that arrival as smooth as possible!!! Business/ first could be called, "ruch over the duch" with Speights flowing like water!!!
:ok: |
The great unwashed airlines!
Feral Air! Moccassins aviation? You see where I'm going don't you?:rolleyes: |
How about Boganair?
|
Up till last week.. one of the six finalists for a name was "Bloody Cheap Airlines"
..and may god have mercy on us all... |
What about Ppruneair..'we'll get you moving..':E
Well, that's just about as ridiculous as I could think up given the circumstances!! You only live twice. Once when you're born. Once when you've looked death in the face. |
What about DICK SMITH AIRWAYS, in honour of the man who seems to call all the shots in Oz aviation. And the airline could be ran based on his good old affordable safety, that is only service the aircraft when something breaks, water down the fuel, and get low hour GA pilots to fly the aircraft.
|
OUCH!
That'll get back!!!:eek: :ouch:
|
What about, "Bag handlers to get more than pilots airways"!
|
How about "KOALA BARE"
|
surprised they aren't trying to steal VB's thunder and call themselves "QANTAS BLUE".
Maybe even TAA will get another guernsey ? or what about "MONOPOLY AIR" ? |
How about "De Flower Airlines"?
After all the competition is a bunch of low cost Virgins!!! :E :E ;) |
What about Boomerang ;)
|
Keeping with the short'n'sweet LCC name theme...
ROO Then if ever they hook up with United's new LCC it would be... ROOTED! halas |
I like Boomerang's Boomerang - the airline you'll always choose to come back with.
|
How do you think "Qantas Light" would go against VB ? Thinking about it, in Oz probably not real well.
|
How about
"GOWALLABIES.COM.AU" Wirraway |
Here's the skinny...
I have "heard" that the names Hop & Jump are presently before the board!!! ;)
|
One wag on CNBC said to put a cat amongst the pigeons they
should call it "TrueBlue" Wirraway |
....
how about Skank Air, Sanga Air(is that how u spell it?), honestly though I quiet like Q Jet, Q Bounce, Q Joey
cheers |
Hows about 'Australian Joey'. .... Marketing jingo......... 'jump on the Joey and hop across to Sydney.....' etc.
Has the flying Kangaroo theme.... |
...............Fruitbat............
|
Nickmelb,
:p "Skank Air" :D :D That is pure Gold! True on so many levels:E |
What about "Hopper Wartoo Airways" . Would just need the slogan and its Up Up and away!.
|
I am thinking
Quick, similiar to all those other dumb names that airlines are using at the moment. Maybe Qantas will take the boring option and use TAA. |
Hmmm...perhaps Hop & Jump were smokies.....:hmm: ...maybe it's SKIP?
I look forward to seeing both of the new colour schemes. |
Well I did bring you SKIMPY however.....
I like "QBLUE".............
I don't mind "OPTIMUM".............. However, I just luuvvvrrree............................ "QUANTUM" :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: I can hear the songs as we type....... "Hey QBLUE, it's me who's flyin' yooooouuuu...........hey QBLUE....." "QUANTUM..........leap forward with Q rewards and no Q's asked!!" Damn! Big Al, you want me to do the adverts????????????:D :D |
I drop the hint again. Stand by for Friday to hear an announcement for a new Charter operation using jet type planes. BEST PRICE GUARANTEED I reckon.
|
How's the slogan go offchocks? There's nothing like a quick....:eek:
Hey! Where'd it go?????:confused: |
Sorry Buster I was messing about an lost it!
How about "Cheap Route Airlines" or "Quick Route Airlines" ...."Quickie" for short! :p |
Q-Jet
Jet on Q They seem to like using the letter 'Q' i.e. On Q (inflight entertainment) |
