just subscribed, great video so far. I loved flying rex. A nice break from the normal qantas, jetstar and virgin flights. In regards to T4, you are somewhat spot on with it being a budget terminal, jetstar and bonza (both low cost) fly out of there too however rex is more full service than low cost so its more like a 'every other airline thats isnt big enough for their own terminal' terminal. haha

It’s definitely up there for me vs some of the other Australian options!

Hi Patrick thanks for reviewing this flight. Rex seems a decent airline and prefer them to Qantas. We in Australia needs them. Imagine a snack (even if not great). Rex bought old Virgin planes as they used to just have small planes servicing rural areas and this allowed them to expand. Enjoy Canberra!

[@PlanetPatrick]

I thought the service on board was really positive and great. Especially compared to some others in the market. Keep an eye out in a week or two for my comparison video looking at the four airlines I tried in Australia. I haven't totted up my scores yet, so I'll be interested myself to make that final cut!

Give Rex a go. Ive done 3 flights with them in the past month BNE to MEL return. Great product. Nice little lounge in T4 Melbourne too. Bar opens at 3.00pm.

[@PlanetPatrick]

I didn’t know about the lounge!

Rex is my preferred Aussie domestic airline. While the planes are a bit pre-loved they are always clean. The customer service is very good, on the plane and off. Delays and cancellations seem to be rare. And they serve a superior class of snack. Best value for money in Australian domestic air travel

[@PlanetPatrick]

I thought they were probably the best of the 4 airlines I tried in Australia

Went into administration today (31 July 2024).

[@PlanetPatrick]

Oh isn't that a shame? I thought they were one of the better experiences I had on that trip to Australia.

[@el8552]

My friend flew with Rex once. Never again he said, worst airline in the world!!

[@PlanetPatrick]

Quite the opposite to me!

@@PlanetPatrick Flown with rex many times and had no problems.
