If The Govt. bails out Virgin then they have to bail
out 10,s of 1000s of other businesses.

Yes and they should only be if they are at least 90% Australian owned !

Lets face it they are not even bailing out foreign students and telling them to go home ! Why should it be different for foreign owned businesses ??

Qantas will double or even triple their air fares. Sure will. No more $270 fares from Perth to Melbourne. It'll be more like $500 one way, and about $700 one way to Sydney.

Virgin was well on the mend after their rebrand. I heard calculations that if Virgin folds, QaintArse will increase fares to the extent it will cost the tourism industry 50b over 10 years.

I'm talking the cheapest fares available.

I used to be able to get $269 to Melbourne, and $349 to Sydney (one way).

Those days are long gone.
