Virgin announced this week it would drop the underperforming Cairns–Haneda service from 24 February and reassign its 737 MAX 8s to domestic flights.
On-time performance across all major airlines is still lagging behind long-term averages, with 76.8 per cent of flights arriving on time in June, 77.8 per cent departing on time, and 2.5 per cent cancelled.
The “An Airfare to Remember” campaign, which is looking to build awareness of Rex’s domestic jet operations, is being rolled out by Rex in conjunction with agency T&Pm Australia, and uses humour and double entendres to get its message across.
The daily service, which launched only last June, will be dropped from 24 February, with Virgin to redeploy the 737 MAX 8 aircraft currently operating the route onto domestic flights.
It comes after Jetstar was forced to cancel virtually all flights until 2am Saturday after its baggage systems were affected and check-in issues occurred.
The Flying Kangaroo said it spent more than 150 hours testing different options that could mimic human circadian rhythms to help customers adjust to their destination’s time zones.
