Yes what are the current assets and liabilities?.takeover?
Maybe SQ will buy it and they’ll join Star Alliance!
Yep, having been to a conucil meeting in my area, some of these people are from another planet. I don't even know how did these people get voted in.Having done a lot of work with local councils… pissing money up the wall does seem to be their speciality!
Maybe you have not actually thought about the possible thoughts and feelings of someone who has been working for Bonza?These people aren’t bus drivers. They won’t be starting with another company tomorrow (or even in the next few months) and they’ll be packing up and moving their entire families across the country or world once again. How about a little humility?
There were so many problems with this airline, where do we even start?Some zingers coming out from ‘aviation experts’ on ABC radio tonight… plenty of creative plays on the name but this one was also good:
‘They started an airline flying between places not many people wanted to fly between, on aircraft models no one wants to fly on and didn’t sell tickets in the way most Australians buy airline tickets, what could have possibly gone wrong?’
The bloke left when VA was still known as VB. Jumped before the Borghetti firing spree began when he first took over VB.There were so many problems with this airline, where do we even start?
But then again, how did someone from Virgin Australia managed to bring the airline into such situation which created an opportunity for this to happen?

So true. I would have loved to try them but cannot go regional (don't know what to do out there) plus I have to go to second tier cities just to take their flights. Also safety is a consideration (Jetstar is coughpy but is trained by Qantas pilots, at least I try to convince myself along that line of logic when taking JQ). Also don't want to be installing an extra malware on my app/too lasy to download another app if it aint on google flights. Nowadays I always take Rex as my first choice even though I have status on the other two airlines because their J class meals are actually edible as in I actually look forward to having them tradeoff is that I'm skipping out on the lounge benefits.Some zingers coming out from ‘aviation experts’ on ABC radio tonight… plenty of creative plays on the name but this one was also good:

No chance. Unsecured creditor.Anyone think there's any chance of getting a refund on the flights, or do I just write it off?
What about the budgie smugglers? Are they still for sale?
Me visualising all the staffs from Hall Chadwick going thru all the budgie smugglers, then carrying them out in cartons, at the liquidator's auction.
So you mean Tim is an amateur?The bloke left when VA was still known as VB. Jumped before the Borghetti firing spree began when he first took over VB.
I live in Sydney, but I love going to western NSW, and other regional towns. They are way more interesting, than going to like Byron or Port Macquarie.So true.

I think the scene is now set for the next few decades.
I came hear to troll joke that the app isn't showing dates for me.With the projected popularion growth, constraints at major airports and lack of any viable fast rail, I think the Australian aviation market is going to look completely different in a few decades. Just as the market now looks completely different to a few decades ago.
Great article @AFF Editor , I really enjoyed your analysis.I've written an opinion piece of what I think went wrong with Bonza:
Feel free to discuss, agree or disagree.
Ah, not really. The quote from ex glorious leader was the he didn’t want the QF pilots to contaminate those from JQ.Also safety is a consideration (Jetstar is coughpy but is trained by Qantas pilots, at least I try to convince myself along that line of logic when taking JQ).
