Fleet

Although initially having a fleet type similar to other budget carriers, the airline announced the unusual move of acquiring wide-bodied aircraft, which may be either from the Airbus 340, Boeing 767 or 777 family in February 2005. This was in-line with the airline's plans to serve beyond the five hour radius to include destinations in Eastern Australia and Northeast Asia.
