Bonza Airline Discussion

Bulkheads on some of the ex-Bonza aircraft from memory still had LOT Polish bulkheads on them. They won't have to change those.

I'd think LOT would want to paint the first of the ex-Bonza aircraft back in their livery.
 
😂😂😂 you are all going to laugh - I had a flight booked with them in October and had no idea about all this until I got an email about the liquidation today! Oh well, back to the drawing board and forking out some more
money 😅

Well, you are a naughty Affer !! not keeping up with the current state of things !
 
All 3 of the remaining Bonza MAX 8's has now been confirmed as joining ex-UJK for their return back to their original customer LOT Polish Airlines.

So a full circle journey for the x4 ex-Bonza MAX 8s.

Don't plame the Polaks! Apart from the Flair Canadian Pilots having a holiday, all their birds were ex-LOT, can't blame Tim Jordan, for wanting the planes back.

Hey Tim, when's the books coming out !
 
You probably won’t hear from Tim Jordan unless A Current Affair go chasing after him. I wonder how much he paid himself at Bonza? Was that ever released?

In the report there was an outstanding claim from Tim Jordan for $99,731 no idea what period that's for.

They hardly had enough stock on flights, who knows maybe there is a cupboard full of them at HQ?
 
Yes - they've been circling the drain for quite some time but managed to pull through despite some very close calls. They were finally spun off from that "interesting" private equity firm that owned Bonza too presumably to give them a fighting chance, but still not exactly on a solid foundation. With Lynx and Canada Jetlines now gone, the market is a bit less crowded, but I don't envy their position.

The debt exposure to 777 is still there though, and those 20% interest rates haven’t gone away either. Talk of 500-600m tied to 777 Partners.
