  + stars: | 2024-04-30 | by ( Lilit Marcus | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +2 min
CNN —Around Australia, travelers are stranded and trying to get home after low-cost airline Bonza unexpectedly announced it has “temporarily suspended services.”The airline, Australia’s newest, had a fleet of six planes, all painted a bright purple color and given Aussie-inspired names like Sheila and Matilda. Catherine King, Australia’s transportation minister, told reporters Tuesday that she had spoken with representatives from Bonza and urged them to keep passengers fully informed. Qantas, Australia’s largest air carrier, services only six of the 36 routes that Bonza has been flying. “We will immediately support any passengers stranded mid-journey by offering complimentary seats on Virgin Australia-operated flights to the airport nearest to their final planned Bonza destination,” the airline wrote on X (formerly Twitter). Currently, the company’s website is still online, but it’s not possible to book flights and all travel dates appear blacked out.

July 7 (Reuters) - U.S. private equity firm 777 Partners has said it is in talks with Boeing Co (BA.N) and Franco-Italian turboprop maker ATR over a new jet order, as it looks to enter more markets amid a boom in air travel. The talks come amid a rush for planes by airlines eager to tap into a greater-than-expected recovery in air travel. Earlier this year, Air India placed an order for 470 jets with Boeing and Airbus SE (AIR.PA) - which was later eclipsed by rival IndiGo's order for 500 Airbus planes. 777's business model involves buying jets and leasing them to airlines which it backs, such as Canadian low-cost carrier Flair Airlines and Australian airline Bonza.

☆ A budget Canadian airline had 4 of its planes repossessed. Its CEO is blaming a conspiracy.

In March, lessor Airborne confiscated four of Flair Airlines' planes because of late payments. A low-cost Canadian upstart airline had four of its planes repossessed by New York-based aircraft lessor Airborne Capital on March 11, forcing the carrier to cancel multiple flights and leaving a trail of disgruntled passengers behind. Flair Airlines CEO Stephen Jones blamed "behind the scenes" scheming between the airline's competitors and Airborne Capital for the repossession of four of Flair's Boeing 737 planes. It's not the first time Flair has clashed with other Canadian airlines. US investment firm 777 Partners owns a 25% stake in Flair Airlines, which was cause for concern for the CTA.
