Air Australia’s first green and gold jet will enter service tomorrow. The airline will initially serve international leisure destinations Bali, Phuket and Honolulu and will continue to serve existing routes flown by Strategic Airlines, which will be phased out over the next two weeks.
The company has also been granted rights to operate services between Australia and China and Australia and the USA and is in the process of doubling its pilot base and recruiting new flight attendants.
The new-start airline, which first took off as ‘Strategic Airlines’ in 2009, will retire its full service business model from 15 November, from whence it will gradually transition its in-flight product, web site, uniforms and airport facilities.
