New airline (TransNusa) to fly Perth- Bali

[OZDUCK]

Flights are announced to start March 20 and to run 3 times per week. Fares are claimed to start from $169. The airline started out using leased aircraft but now - "In early 2022, the airline, now backed and part-owned by the China Aircraft Leasing Group (CALC) (indirect subsidiary of China Everbright Group), --- announced that it will be operating a mixed fleet of Airbus A320neos and Comac ARJ21s" It apparently operates on a BOB basis but food can be pre-ordered at a discount. The only incident I can see involving it is a collision while a plane was being towed in Jakarta.

Can you make sure your Temu Airlines booking 100% isn’t on a Comac?

Given Jetstar is resorting to having to operate a ADL-PER international flight to pick up more capacity on the PER-DPS route, I'm kind of surprised there was actually more capacity on the Indonesian carrier side to allow this to occur especially given Air Asia, Batik and Citilink all currently operate on the route.

I think all the Perth/Bali flights are narrow body so that may leave some room to play.

It’s by seat allocation so doesn’t make any difference

Do they even have an AOC to fly in Indonesia? They don’t seem to actually exist

Pretty sure they were the mob we flew to Lombok with a few years ago. It was a while back but the name sounds familiar
