"FLEDGLING carrier Air Australia yesterday hit out at rumours that ANZ Bank is considering winding up the company amid worries from some creditors about outstanding payments." From the Australian. Could Air Australia really be in trouble?

On the radio this morning. Air Australia has been placed into voluntary administration as of today. Radio 2UE have been talking to a pax stranded in Phuket. Details are apparently on the Air Australia website.

Rod is correct - and yet when you go to thier website, all the 'click here for more information links' don't work.

Confirmed - in voluntary admin. All flight cancelled, 300 stuck in Phuket

Glad I wasn't wrong Sarah. Could have been embarrassing

Shame anotber airline bites the dust.

Not looking good in the aviation industry at the moment, first Qantas sack staff and now this.

Will miss seeing this livery.

Moral of the story....NEVER pay cash to an airline. Always use Credit Cards!!
