Australia’s Civil Aviation Safety Authority has grounded Tiger Airway‘s domestic flights for a minimum of one week, disrupting thousands of travellers.

Passengers who were due to fly Tiger Airways between 1 July and 9 July 2011 are being offered full refunds or credits for later travel dates.  With school holidays in some Australian states and the effects of intermittent ongoing disruptions due to ash from Chilean volcano Puyehue Cordon-Caulle, some travellers may have difficulty making alternative flights on other airlines.

Tiger Airways international flights to and from Australia, and throughout Asia, are unaffected by the grounding.
