The IASC has awarded the Flying Kangaroo 1,798 seats of capacity per week between Australia and Vanuatu, which Qantas plans to fly with a mixture of its own 737-800s, wet-leased Alliance E190s, and Jetstar’s A321neos, putting it in direct competition with Virgin Australia.
The Australian has reported that Colin Carter, former strategy chief for Boston Consulting Group, has been asked by the board to help determine whether Joyce is eligible for performance-dependent long-term bonuses of around $14 million and short-term bonuses of around $2.2 million.
While it could not disclose the number or the nature of the interested parties, Ernst & Young confirmed it had received non-binding offers for the Vanuatuan flag carrier, which went into voluntary liquidation last month owing at least $99 million.
Flight VA148 was forced to divert to Invercargill after flames were seen shooting from the engine shortly after takeoff. The airport's assertion does not necessarily rule out a bird strike, and the 737-800, VH-YIV (pictured at Sydney in 2018), remains in Invercargill as of Tuesday.
Mayor Rosanna Natoli has written to Queensland Premier Steven Miles asking for help from the state government, saying the Sunshine Coast had benefited considerably from Bonza’s presence since its launch in January 2023. Sunshine Coast Airport was the carrier’s first of three hubs.
The passenger service, from Queenstown, was diverted to Invercargill with the airline confirming it is aware of the incident.
