Will Rex's collapse make flying more expensive?
Manage episode 431559194 series 2664539
Rex Airlines has gone into voluntary administration. Has it been bullied out of the market by its competitors?
The airline has grounded its fleet of 737 aircraft that service capital cities and will continue to fly its Saab 340 flights between regional centres. Rex employs about 2000 people and their jobs and futures are uncertain, as calls across the country come for the government to step in in some way to help.
In this episode of The Briefing Sacha Barbour Gatt is joined by Robyn Ironside, aviation writer for the Australian newspaper, to discuss what this development means for regional travel and ticket prices going forward.
