The low-cost airline has decided to give back to its customers after reaching a mammoth milestone.

Tigerair Australia is celebrating flying its 15 millionth passenger since domestic operations first began on 23 November 2007, with a special three-day sale commencing from 3:00 pm AEST today featuring 1,500 seats on sale until midnight tonight from just $15.00 for selected travel in 2015.

Today’s sale features four popular routes with 1,500 seats available from just $15 to fly either way between Sydney and Adelaide, Melbourne and Adelaide, Brisbane and Cairns and Gold Coast and Sydney.

Tomorrow, from 3pm until midnight, another 1,500 seats will go on sale on another four selected routes and the same will occur on Thursday 17 September, the final day of the three day sale.

Tigerair Australia’s Head of Communications, Vanessa Regan, says that today’s celebration marks yet another significant milestone for the airline as it continues to go from strength to strength and more Australians choose to fly Tigerair.

“Wherever we fly we not only provide consistently great value fares, but also bring healthy competition to the market,” she said.

The 15 millionth passenger, Maggie Rutjens, was also rewarded by the airline.

Ms. Rutjens, a musician with Timberwolf, was presented with a $1,500 travel voucher ahead of her return leg which she will use to get to future Timberwolf gigs around the country.

“I’ve flown a lot with Tigerair in the past and love the fact that they are both affordable and accessible,” she said.

“For a studying musician who isn’t loaded with cash Tigerair is a great way of making this happen.”
