Koala Airlines Discussion

[HS-TQE]

Just wow, but at the same time not overly that surprised that they are facing failure before a single flight has taken off. Would have to be the fastest wind-up / liquidation of an airline ever if the initiators (former co-backers?) application is successful.

Great Southern might be quicker

Good to see it happen without inconveniencing pax I guess

One thing it would have had in common with Bonza is it would burn similar amounts of cash.

I recall Jayne Hrdlicka said in a speech after the collapse that $300-$400m of new capital is required for a startup, to get to a breakeven point.

That’s a lot of cash to throw around to reach a point in which doesn’t even guarantee you will still make money from then onwards. Airlines are just terrible investments.

Airlines are just terrible investments.

Speculation seems to be a more appropriate term.
