Absolutely agree with that.

If ever you get sick of being up the front end Will you could obviously turn your hand to Aviation analyst/writer!!

Interestingly if you look at the online bookings for Tiger, a number of off-peak flights to various destinations have been canned ad-hoc at least until early December... Low pax numbers?

Very good write up Will, the article basically said that VBA's pax numbers are up by about 17.9% this is due to a number a factors including strike issues at QF.

Please feel free to email me more information

Cheers

Geez Rhys it's not like they are on their last legs or anything.

... and Radi.... 10 points for managing to include the Hoff in this thread!

I am surpirised the Hoff hasn't started his own airline, something along the lines of **** Hoff Airways.
