Bonza cuts flights amid trouble registering aircraft

Bonza, the budget airline backed by Miami private equity firm 777 Partners, has cut flights from the Gold Coast, and an aircraft that was meant to be based at the Queensland airport remains grounded.

From May 1, Bonza will reduce the number of flights from Melbourne to the Gold Coast to one a week, and increase flights to the Sunshine Coast – where it has another two aircraft based – to five a week.
