We were on the first Bonza flight back in January 2023, and are devastated by the news this morning that Bonza has been put into receivership. We are thinking of all those that will personally be impacted by this development; the Bonza employees, the regional Australian communities that will lose vital aviation access and the tourism businesses who will be impacted. But most importantly the Australian travellers who have had their travel plans extinguished at the very last moment and who will probably face a long battle to try and get some or all of their money back from the airline. Now is not the time to dissect the reasons for the failure of Bonza, but highlights just how tough aviation and tourism in Australia can be. We prefer to view this development as highlighting the greatness of our successful tourism businesses in Australia, many of whom are small family-owned businesses. We salute them for their resilience and passion to continually deliver outstanding experiences for all visitors. #tourism #aviation #bonza
