Tiger Airways announced that it will fly twice a day between Melbourne and Perth before the end of the year.
Tiger will be increasing its Melbourne to Perth flights in stages. On 02-Oct-08 Tiger commence 3 flights a week in addition to the daily service it has been operating since last year. On 01-Nov-08 the airline will move to 2 flights a day in time for Christmas.
Shelley Roberts, Managing Director of Tiger Airways Australia said, “Since Tiger Airways started flying to Perth, we have seen the route warmly embraced by Australians wanting the real deal when it comes to flying. Before Tiger Airways came along, it was cheaper for travellers to go overseas than to get around their own country. It was a disgraceful situation but Tiger Airways’ low fare revolution has changed that.”
In celebration of the doubling of Melbourne to Perth flights 2000 tickets are on sale for AUD99.95 The AUD99.95 fares include all taxes and charges and 7 kg of carry on baggage for travel between 01-Oct-08 to 30-Nov-08 and 01-Feb-09 – 28-Mar-09.
