Airline Bonza has stopped all flights as it works out if it can survive as a business, the company has said, which follows the airline being promised an undisclosed amount of Territory taxpayer money in September to fly to Darwin and Alice Springs.
In a statement issued just after 8am, Bonza chief executive officer Tim Jordan said services were temporarily suspended with all Tuesday’s flights cancelled as the company held “discussions…regarding the ongoing viability of the business”.
Any business, mine or major project that receives NT labor endorsement are doomed. How much NT tax payers money was pumped into this mess? I feel sorry for all those people who believed Chief Minister Lawler’s nonsense assurances that the government had done all due diligence to ensure tax payers money was safely invested. Labor makes it harder not easier to do business in the NT. Bonza is the latest in a long line of expensive failed Labor projects.
