  9. Strategic Positioning • “Ryanair in Asia”, low cost through aggressive cost control • Low fares, high volume positioning • Group structure to allow regional growth - New base every 12-18 months • All economy, high seat density using a single fleet of A320 aircraft • Frontline staff pay tied to productivity with lean, efficient management • No interlining, connecting services, codeshare or full service perks • Direct sales distribution plan using only the Tiger Airways website and the call centre – over 90% of sales over the web • GrowingAncillary Revenues • Outsourced non-core activities • High aircraft utilisation

  10. Solid Operational Performance

  11. A Growing Tiger

  12. Rapidly Growing Network Now January 2005 Summer 2006 • Financial Year 2008/09 • Incheon Tiger Airways to be established • Tiger Airways Australia – linking 13 points in all states • Tiger Airways Singapore – Linking 15 points across Asia • A total of 28 destinations in 11 countries • 12 aircraft with 60 on firm order

  13. Tiger Aviation – Well Positioned

  14. Network Development Opportunities - Singapore Huge Market potential – 3Bn catchment • China 1.3 billion • India 1.1 billion • Indonesia 232 million • Philippines 89 million • Vietnam 87 million • Thailand 63 million • Malaysia 27 million • Within 2.5 hours of Singapore • 122 compatible airports • 30 cities in excess of 500,000 • 19 cities in excess of 1,000,000 • Within 2.5 – 5.0 hours of Singapore • 241 compatible airports • 98 cities in excess of 500,000 • 72 cities in excess of 1,000,000 • Using the LCC terminal at Changi with lower costs and higher levels of operational efficiency Further growth In frequency & market penetration Indonesia Expected to be liberalised Major expansion Planned for Malaysia 2008 Liberalisation of ASEAN market Singapore is the ideal hub location to expand Tiger’s regional business with significant populations and infrastructure already present in the SE Asia region

  15. Network Development Opportunities - Australia Potential fleet could Number 30 aircraft By 2016 Planned growth To 5 hubs within 5 years A319 aircraft Opens up smaller/ regional airports 2nd Hub Will increase geographic coverage Melbourne Base load factors over 80% Tiger is only carrier in the ultra low cost segment establising a foothold in the market with strong load factors in the first 6 months of operations and Australia presents significant potential for a true LCC

  16. Network Development Opportunities - Korea No limits on Growth At Incheon Airport High cost Asiana and Korean Airlines Potential to Grow into Domestic market Huge markets in Northern & Eastern China and Japan Good mix of Leisure & VFR traffic Fully liberalised High yield Korea- Japan market Korea will easily assist Tiger in expanding to previously blocked markets considered high in yield and ripe for low cost carrier development in NE Asia giving access to East Coast China and Japan

  17. How do we achieve this growth?

  18. Fleet Strategy • High utilisation – up to 14 hours per day • Night flying to increase utilisation • Routes up to 5 hours radius from base airports • One type of aircraft : Airbus 320 family • A320 on denser routes and Asian network • A319 to develop regional links combating high fares of regional airlines in Australia • Many of the new aircraft on order can be switched to smaller A319, if necessary

  19. Fleet Expansion • 72 aircraft in Tiger Airways fleet by 2016 • Deployed in operating bases across Singapore, Australia, Korea and additional Asian bases • Investment in aircraft exceeds US $ 4.3bn

  20. Tiger Aviation – What’s next?

  21. Overview of the market in Australia • With rising fuel costs the incumbent airlines are scrambling to reduce costs after years of excessive profits. • Other major airlines are grounding aircraft, reducing or pulling out of routes • Tiger Airways Australia has the lowest cost base and is the low fare market leader • Tiger Airways has a fantastic opportunity to fill the gap left by the incumbents especially to more regional areas. • Exploring all opportunities to operate International Services utilising Australian based crews and aircraft

  22. Overview of the market in SE Asia • Tiger Airways is the only low cost airline to operate in all of the world’s leading growth markets (India, China and SE Asia) • Concept of low fare airlines remains relatively new to Asia, with less than 5% of current passengers travelling on low fares, majority of Asians have never flown but are becoming more confident about travel • Traditional services typically operated by full service carriers using wide bodied aircraft between major airports with relatively low frequency. • Regulatory barriers are greater than in Europe or North America but are slowly being through the ASEAN Roadmap

  23. The next opportunity – North AsiaIncheon Tiger Airways Tiger Airways will be first major low cost carrier to be established in North East Asia The region has some of the strongest growth economies in the world and access to key growth markets on China’s East Coast – 1 billion people live within 2 hours flying time of Incheon. Korea has liberal agreements with China and Japan (with restrictions on some metros such as Tokyo) Traffic rights are also expected to be available to existing Tiger Airways destinations such as Macau and Clark (The Philippines).

  24. Over 3 Billion opportunities Populations • China 1.3 billion • India 1.1 billion • Indonesia 242 million • Philippines 87 million • Vietnam 83 million • Thailand 64 million • South Korea 50 million • Australia 20 million • Singapore 4 million

  25. Tiger Aviation – Summary

  26. Tiger Aviation – In Summary • Tiger Airways is and will continue to be an important part of the Australian aviation market. • Real competition has finally arrived and the winners are the Australian traveling public – they want our low fares. • Tiger Airways is committed to long term growth across the Asia Pacific region, supported by a firm order of 60 additional aircraft by 2016. • The low fare revolution has arrived in Australia and its here to stay !
