Virgin Australia to boost fleet on hopes of rapid travel recovery – Sydney Morning Herald
The move comes spells trouble for Qantas’ plan to grab the market share Virgin vacated in its restructure.
Virgin Australia is in advanced discussions to lease eight or nine more Boeing 737s to boost capacity in anticipation of a rapid recovery in Australias domestic travel market.
The move comes after Virgin cut its domestic fleet from 84 planes to just 58 following its bankruptcy in April last year, and spells trouble for Qantas plan to grab the market share Virgin vacated in its restructure.
