Tiger Airways Australia have been through the mill last year when at one point – the entire airline was grounded for 6 weeks by the Australian Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) last year.

It hopes to be operating all 10 of its A320’s by June this year, whilst boosting some routes and introducing new ones.
