Jump to postI suspect if the financially well managed Rex can put forward a good business case for Brindabella, then the administrators might just take them up on that offer.

Jump to postThat proposed development will never happen. That is a wildlife conservation area, the suburb is home to 2600 people and is the site of Captain Cook's first landing.

Jump to postIt is a legal requirement in Australia as well. No pilot can fly more than 900 flight hours per year.
Jump to postExactly, those cheaper saver airfares will be selling out insanely fast, so only the higher fare brackets will be available. As Virgin add more flights, cheaper airfares become available again.
Supply and Demand as Flash said. Virgin are doing all they can to help the Australian travelling public.
Virgin Australia have added an additional 43,000 seats from today until 31/1/12, from Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra, Perth and Karratha airports.

Jump to postNZ Lounge in Sydney HAS a separate F section. I used it in 2006 when i flew TG in F class. Very nice lounge.
Jump to postHaha, we are awesome and we know it!
Great report, happy to see the 773ER in Sydney, another one to add to our growing collection down here. Bring them on!
Badgery's Creek, what a flop that was!
I think Newcastle as well as the third runway at SYD have eased pressure for a 2nd to be built in Sydney!
The Caravelle is a very nice hotel. I stayed there when we went to Vietnam for the second time and were very pleased at its quality.

Jump to postAre they still planning on a return to Australia?
They have so many code-shares here is not funny, and there has been talk for a while that they will make a return.
I think it will be either of the two names with Virgin in it. When the competition started, Virgin Blue themselves stated that the name <b>can</b> include the word "Virgin", and for the shortlisted names that include that word as a representation of the Virgin Group, they have to be able to use the ...

Jump to postStar needs to add Virgin and its Affilate airlines. This will enable more connections out of London, as well as a huge presence in the Pacific/Australia, something which Star lacks at the moment, since the demise of Ansett in 2001.
Jump to postThe dutch royal couple (frederick and mary) flew to Australia commercially (in Jetstar mind you to Hobart) , in separate aircraft though.
Jump to postthe 787-3 is a much needed 767 replacement, they can't scrap it.
Jump to postI always thought that the contestants tickets were pre-purchased (they don't have to pay anything, unless they have already booked, and want an earlier flight) and all they had to do was choose a flight!
Jump to postAnsett had a weird fleet, and as stated before, it was a major reason for their bankrupsy!
