Unless Tiger go under altogether, I am convinced Tiger are NOT canning CBR - CBR is doing quite well for them. I note that a number of other destinations also aren't yet bookable after March.
As of 15 December, TT have a complete schedule change. No MEL-CBR or MEL-ROK from 15 Dec, and reductions on other routes:

MEL-PER x2 daily (no change)
MEL-ADL x2 daily (-2 daily)
MEL-LST x1 daily (-1 daily)
MEL-HBA x1 daily (-2 daily)
MEL-CBR x0 daily (-2 daily)
MEL-OOL x3 daily (no change)
MEL-MCY x1 daily (no change)
MEL-MKY x3 weekly (no change)
MEL-ASP x3 weekly (no change)
MEL-ROK x0 daily (-3 weekly)

Looks like the A320 has been delayed for the peak holiday season!

The problem is there is NO CREWS to crew these flights, barely enough as it is now. In fact, new crews are only just starting now.

So I ask the question again why are there no crews??? Poor working conditions??? This is not good for their business at all.

Are they losing an aircraft or will it just be sitting idle?

I suspect they are just rejigging schedules, certainly not the level of cuts posted.

Further to my above post, lo-and-behold, flights that supposedly were cut from 15 December have obviously been rejigged in the booking system and are back available for booking. Some minor adjustments and some ad-hoc cancellations it seems, but none of the doom and gloom posted earlier.

Kain, so as to avoid the over-sensationalism we so often see in the media, can you check with a reliable source before posting something as though it is fact?!

O.K., so the MEL-CBR and MEL-ROK are back in at new times, but the rest of the cuts remain, in particular to ADL, LST and HBA. Still what I would call a significant change, as it is much more than a "couple of ad-hoc changes" in your words.

As for a reliable source, if the TT booking engine is not reliable then I don't know what is! If it didn't take them two days to load the new flights in then there would be no confusion would there! As there were previous rumors as to TT canning CBR I put two and two together, but did not get four this time! I would have been right over 90% of the time!

How are they back? I still can't book beyond december 15th now...

Tiger is pulling out earlier than I first thought? Seriously, is it due to crew or that they are making such a big loss?

Alex.

You can book both MEL-CBR vv and MEL-ROK vv in January for random dates I just entered.
