Ha, good luck. That’s if CASA will allow them.

CASA still allow AirAsia X, AirAsia Indonesia and they didn't have a problem with Indonesia AirAsiaX (which the Indonesian DGAC disallowed) and Malindo. I don't see them disallowing anyone.

Rowan McKeever · #4 21st March 2018, 03:04 PM

Is there any specific reason why CASA wouldn't / shouldn't allow Vietjet?

I could go into a lot of detail but probably best I don’t.

Maybe see what a search of safety incidences involving their aircraft pulls up.

Landing at the wrong airport is serious, but only happened once and it was a while ago now, I would fly them before I flew any Indonesian airline.
