Rex’s entry into the domestic big city aviation market is the biggest game-changer I have witnessed in my 40 years of being involved with the Australian aviation industry – three established players (albeit one recently out of administration) facing up as genuine competitors.

From Rex’s perspective, there has never been a better time to set up a domestic carrier. Out of the adversity of COVID-19 comes opportunity – aircraft are plentiful and affordable, fuel is cheap, experienced Australian pilots are available, and there is plenty of space at airports.
