Well that was always the intention I guess. They got what they wanted. Now the trick is to see how long they can run this arrangement. Ideally, forever and ever.

This is a odd one. I assume they want to get rid of those people who are walking around weighing bags. Another cost they can rip out...

5 years in Management is often the norm before someone departs for the next thing. They might have just committed to 5 years also. Often seen with CEO handovers, don’t forget Nick missed out on the CEO job. This has probably been in the works since Jayne Hrdlicka left considering who they have...

This must have been in the works for some time if they already have an external lined up. He would have worked with Jayne Hrdlicka while she was at Loyalty after Jetstar, so likely where the connection came from. JH still has one or two C suite jobs at Endeavour she hasn’t replaced yet so I’d...

I agree with the above, I sort of feel like Velocity has been a bit flat post administration. They need to invest and fix the digital platforms. They are just shocking.

I wonder if either will pop up at Endeavour Group. Here is the new boss for Velocity and his Qantas work. 2018 - 2020 Executive Manager - Customer Experience, Qantas Loyalty @ Qantas 2016 - 2018 Head of Partnerships and Alliances @ Qantas 2013 - 2016 Head of Investor Relations @ Qantas 2017 -...

They generally do skew lower priced, especially in peak holidays or on peak day during the week. We might see a PER-WSI flight that now enables them to do a 6pm/7pm ish departure from Perth that arrives around 12/1am. Currently the last departure from Perth is around 3pm.

Sydney Virgin lounge is much the same in peak. It’s just as busy in the bathrooms etc as the normal terminal.

It’s been nearly 60 years since our last major airport was built so I’m certainly looking forward to some newness. Now can we demolish Tullamarine and build a new one on the other side of the runway 🤣

I would expect the subsidiary pilots at this one to strike this year over EBA negotiations. And so they should.

It’s been one of the letdowns post administration. You are basically just paying for a big throne, I wouldn’t call it a business class experience. The only real flight that will somewhat have lounge access is the upcoming Canberra to Bali flight, and the Gold Coast to Bali flight should have...

Looks like this one is coming back March- Thur/Fri and some Sundays. July School Holidays- Mon/Sat October to Jan- Sunday to Friday. The July departures are at 1am. I’m surprised CNS Airport would even let them operate such a flight.

I’ve never understood the complexity airlines have with refunding money. You can get instant or next day refunds at a payment terminal at most retailers, even online refunds it only takes a day or two. I’ll never forget Bonza. They apparently needed to do it all manual, someone literally...

These heavy checks will get the fleet to nearly 2040. They won’t get another check so I wouldn’t expect any announcement for fleet replacement until 2033-2035, which will be a different management team and board at that time no doubt. I’d expect the 787-9 to replace it, that would get them...

From the SMH. Also noted on Senate Estimates last night, they expect to begin freighter ops in July. I’d expect Jetstar to launch before the peak. I’ll take a punt and say Melbourne, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Perth. The question remains will they slightly reduce frequencies at Mascot for these...

I see. Having a look it appears they have two. One is flying the weekly flight and the other is parked since 12/11. I assume that’s a backup.

I’ve seen that A319 they have parked at Brisbane I think at for at least 6 months.

It’s strange, I mean, 2-3 months perhaps while they undergo crew differences training, get CASA to tick off etc. Perhaps they just don’t have the ability to roll out these 737s with resources tied up with the A321 rollout. Seems like they just wanted to get hold of these aircraft over...

are they not taking the ‘link’ off the branding? I thought I read something about that.
