Tiger to return to the Sunshine Coast?
The Sunshine Coast Daily reports that the popular local airport is anticipating a return of services by Tiger Airways in the not too distant future.
Tiger Airways spokesperson Vanessa Regan told the newspaper that the carrier was resuming domestic services gradually, focusing on flying popular routes to enable the airline to fly affordably and reliably.
"I can confirm that Tiger was pleased with demand with flights historically to and from Sunshine Coast,” Regan said.
"We are keen to return to Sunshine Coast. It's not really a case of if, but when."
Sunshine Coast Airport’s Peter Pallot said Tiger had been responsible for about 250,000 seats a year in and out of the airport.
That’s out of total of around 900,000 seats annually so it’s a significant contribution and one that would be welcome back.
