And another one bites the dust — this time it’s Rex.

It’s a real shame, because (at least from my experience) their staff were far friendlier and more accommodating. And their prices were reasonable.

(They also never seemed to sell all their business class seats, so a seat up the front could be yours for $50 extra if you wanted it.)

I wonder whether Qantas or Virgin will pick up the regional routes?

I like Rex… Whenever we fly domestic we try and use them. Mostly because they’ve never cancelled a flight we’ve been on, ever.

Also you can bid for business class seats and often get them for cheap.
