Grazie della risposta jetboy. Tu acquisterai dei voli low cost o a questo punto acquisterai voli quantas? sulle tratte che ho acquistato io vola anche la jetstar (con cui ho comprato un volo da gold coast a sydney), ma non so se fidarmi o meno... il bello è che il sydney-melbourne ce l'ho il 3 agosto, quindi nn so se riacquistare il biglietto adesso o attendere il 31 luglio (quando sarò già in australia) e poi eventualmente riacquistare i biglietti(a prezzi sicuramente più alti). Mi sa che alla fine modificherò il viaggio in itinere!
Stop ai voli di Tiger Airways fino al 9 luglio

Dovresti poter stare tranquillo.
Tiger Airways Singapore è estranea all'inchiesta che ha portato al grounding della sorella australiana.
Entrambe le compagnie sono possedute da Tiger Airways Holding, il cui maggiore azionista è Singapore Airlines con circa il 33% delle quote.
E' notizia fresca che il capo della filiale australiana è stato silurato e sostituito dal CEO di Tiger Airways Holding. Evidentemente nella terra dei canguri, la corsa sfrenata al contenimento dei costi ha fatto sfuggire un po' la situazione di mano. Anche se pare si siano messi di buona lena per tornare in carreggiata.

Tiger Airways Australia "optimistic" of resuming flights
By Ghim-Lay Yeo
Grounded Tiger Airways Australia is "optimistic" that it will resume services, following an application by Australian regulators to extend a suspension on its flights.
"We are optimistic of returning to normal services while reassuring the public, staff and stakeholders of our long term commitment to Australia. The airline is well positioned to meet these goals," said the airline.
Australia's Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) said yesterday it would apply to the country's Federal Court to extend a grounding of the airline to 1 August, which means its flights would have been suspended for a month. CASA first grounded the airline for a week from 2 July due to safety concerns.
"Tiger Airways Australia is committed to working with the industry regulator and other authorities to resolve their issues, something we are confident we can do in the coming days and weeks," said the carrier. "Tiger Airways Australia is currently talking to all of our staff directly to reassure them on the airline's long term future."
Following the extension of the grounding yesterday, Tiger said the CEO of its Australian arm, Crawford Rix, will step down at the end of this month. Parent company Tiger Airways Holdings' CEO Tony Davis will take over Rix, the airline said.

Io alla fine mi sono rivolto a Qantas, unico operatore (a parte Tiger) sulla tratta MEL ASP. Sassata da 230€ a testa, ma il rischio di rimanere a terra con tutto il resto della vacanza già organizzato è troppo alto. Spero a questo punto che il mio volo venga cancellato e che mi venga riconosciuto un rimborso. So anche che Jetstar qualche mese fa era in difficoltà, causa agitazioni dei piloti per il rinnovo contrattuale.
Mi rendo conto che la cosa potrebbe interessare solo pochi, ma ho scoperto che Qantas sta offrendo tariffe agevolate a chi ha acquistato biglietti relativi a voli nazionali in partenza nel periodo 'incriminato' (per ora dal 2 al 9 luglio, citando il sito). Per accedere all'offerta basta presentare la ricevuta di acquisto emessa da Tiger.
Ciao!
Ciao!
Jetstar è la "smart carrier" di Qantas, divisione low cost controllata al 100% da QF, quindi puoi stare più che tranquillo-
