AirAsia dumps Avalon and returns to Tullamarine

[Quickstatus]

Interesting to see that they're also launching KUL-SYD-AKL

There won't be an issue then if the aircraft turns left

At least they hadn't blown more $s on some of the rail proposals.

Yeah the marketing effect would be interesting if relabelled as GOR airport.

Presumably Avalon have done that research already (or GOR not available anyway?).

Markets work well where there aren’t monopolies. But usually where there is some form of monopoly some government intervention or regulation usually helps the consumer.

Agree, we also don't have the mass population to have several options. Even an an 'ok' run govt monopoly is often better for the people an than a profit driven entity.

IATA code GOR doesn’t return anything on a search of FR24…
If AVV changes, does YMAV have to be changed as well? Both YMGO and YMGR don’t come up and actually neither does YGOR.
