Default another one bites the dust...

Noen som husker Backpackers Xpress??? Det planlagte long-haul LCC-selskapet som skulle fly billig mellom EuropA, Asia og Asutralia??

saxet fra CAPA i dag:

Backpackers Xpress, a planned low cost, long-haul airline based in Australia, confirmed it ceased trading in January, prior to launching operations (Australian Financial Review, 21 April). The carrier was unsuccessful in gaining rights to operate its proposed routes, including Manchester and Munich to Melbourne via New Delhi and Bangkok, causing investors to withdraw funding support.

Backpackers Xpress: “We are now in the position of talking to another party to see if they're interested in putting funding in…I think it's quite a brilliant concept and there have been a number of people who have had a lot of faith in it,” Evelyn Robins, Director. Source: The Australian, 21 April

Det var vel disse som hadde noen utgamle 747-er på hånda som de skulle ha til "partyfly" på reisen, slik at reisen skulle føles morsommere og kortere?
Kanskje like greit at de holder seg på bakken.

Problemet var at de ikke fikk trafikkrettigheter, ikke mangel på penger, eller hur?

Har en følelse av at indiske og thailandske myndigheter ikke vil ha noe LCC konkurranse i sin del av lekegrinda.

Joda, men de fleste av disse ligger det Thailendske eierinteresser helt eller delvis bak. DA er det en annen historie i alle fall i Thailand ..
