PRLog -- Tiger Airways’ Australian operations launched another domestic route on 18 June. It now connects Melbourne (MEL) with Darwin (DRW) six times a week with its A320 aircraft. The airline used to connect the capitals of Victoria and Northern Territory until October 2008. The service now competes with Jetstar’s 10 and Virgin Blue’s seven weekly flights. Northern Territory Airports’ CEO Ian Kew commented: “Our partnership with Tiger Airways goes back many years as Darwin was the first Australian destination served by Tiger Airways Singapore in 2005. We are pleased to see the return of Tiger Airways to Darwin, and look forward to working with them to expand their ‘paw print’ in the Territory.”
