Steve has declared that the boys won’t be talking about the Australian Sex Party despite Grant’s protestations (don’t worry, you can hear our chat with two of their pilots, Ken Hill & Tim Sheen, back in PCDU Episode 40). After getting past that tricky topic, they proceed to discuss:
- Virgin Australia are going to use their subsidiary TigerAir on flights to Bali as well as completely pulling out of flights to Phuket
- Virgin are also converting 17 of their 737-800 orders into 737 MAX 8 orders (and delaying them, thus hopefully saving more money) which will give them a total of 40 orders … eventually
- The good news continues for Qantas as Moody’s upgrades their credit rating
- Alliance Airlines sending its fleet of Fokkers up to Slovakia for heavy maintenance ‘cos it’s cheaper to fly all the way from Australia to Europe than maintain a heavy maintenance facility in Australia
