Tiger Announce MEL-PER and MEL-ASP

[stuartfaz]

TT's selling these for $39.95, no blackout.

JQ responds with a $29 MEL-LST sale from 29/11 (TT MEL-LST launch date) to 29/2/08 blackout dates 13/12/07 to 31/01/08 incl.

Same as the other TT routes, really.

EDIT: and JQ's sale fares arent available on Fridays and Sundays either.

just realised there was already a thread on this.
oops

Tiger have now announced MEL-LST, a daily departure from MEL @ 15:50, returning from LST @ 17:20.

What next? My tip is ADL. There are some gaps in the schedule that are a perfect fit for services to ADL (ie allowing for 2 x 30min turnarounds + 2:35 flying) I guess MEL-ADL @ 8:30 M/W/F/S and another MEL-ADL daily @ 12:15. Time will tell.

Wonder where Tiger will pinch terminal space from in LST?! Probably DJ I suppose!

I wonder where they are going to shack up in PER. Perhaps they can do something at the Int terminal. Seem to remember that being done before by a domestic carrier

Good point. Or do what DJ did when they first started - set up a tent alongside the terminal!

Virgin Blue did this initially.

Yea but I thought thats because Ansett and QF had the terminals tied up, I believe when DJ took over the Ansett space they weren't on the same exclusive terms...?

Plus QF Group uses their gates more than DJ anyway.

Looks like Tiger are considering trans-tasman routes too:

that'd explain the outline of NZ lurking at the edge of their route map.
