AFP: Budget 'Air Australia' to fly after Qantas chaos

Wish them the best of luck, BUT......

Do we REALLY need ANOTHER LCC??

New paint scheme?

I liked the old one...

But Lasiorhinus, the most important question... does the Airbus have the signature matress down the back?

Hahaha and the curtains slightly opened! :yuk:

....and they do their heavy maintenance overseas! Can't be Australian.....

Makes me think of Air America. Doubt the flying would be as interesting though :E

Crikey! Launching a "new" airline when one of the biggest price wars between airlines is about to start. Gutsy move.

Interesting....

The start-up again came under the spotlight this week after the release of accounts showing its losses widened from $2.1m in 2008-09 to:uhoh: $9.3m last financial year and that it was cashflow positive only because of a $6m loan from the charter business.

The accounts, which also identified an $11.4m net asset deficiency, were accompanied by an auditor's warning of "material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt about the company's ability to continue as a going concern".

I wonder if Chuckie did a deal on the name rights?

There only hope is a buyout by somebody with more money

Not gutsy, stupid. Why take a moderately well performing charter business and saddle that with a tiny 'low cost' start up in a market that is already saturated with airlines that have very very deep pockets.

New scheme keeps reminding me of the Woolworths logo.... Must buy spuds.

At least it is not red.

Maybe they ARE being underwritten by Woolies :ugh:

you'll be buying new cars at the same time as your bag of spuds next.

White with an accent.......green.....hmmmmm

Bbbbbbbzbzbzbzzzzzzz

Strategic need to be start australian charter. Pay a certain amount and get everything included. European style. might be a hit.

I heard Branson is somehow backing it???? Got this from a travel company manager in Thailand.

The only reason that could wildly be possible is for the AOC and for Virgin to start a low cost carrier now that Virgin is moving up market:confused:

But I really think SRB has enough on his plate with VS
