Tigerair brings more budget to Brisbane

Friday, 04 Dec, 2013 0

Tigerair Australia will make Brisbane its third Australian base, with operations starting in March next year.

Two new Airbus A320 aircraft will be based in Brisbane, servicing three new routes – to and from Darwin, Cairns and Adelaide.

Tigerair has also launched a new route between Sydney and Adelaide.

Tigerair Australia CEO Rob Sharp said: "Budget travel options at Brisbane have lagged behind other major airports.

"Historically, budget travel has accounted for only 19% of Brisbane’s overall airport capacity, against 33% and 26% respectively in Melbourne and Sydney."
