Safety announcement

I've always wondered how budget airlines can offer such cheap fares. Now I fear we are finding out.


Australia's second-largest airline, Virgin Blue, has admitted its maintenance records are in disarray, raising serious questions over the upkeep of its fleet of 40 aircraft. The airline has agreed it will fly within an hour of an airport at all times, forcing it to deviate from the most direct path and add travelling time.
That's the kind of PR that can bring an airline down. Hopefully not an airliner.
