CORRECTION HEADLINE

NEW CHIEF FOR TIGER AIRWAYS IN AUSTRALIA


MELBOURNE, March 25 (Bernama) -- Tiger Airways Holdings Ltd has appointed
the former boss of UK low-cost carrier bmibaby, Crawford Rix, as Managing
Director of its Australian operations.

Aviation veteran, Rix will head up the Singapore-based airline's
Australian arm, after a four-year stint as Managing director at bmibaby.

He takes over from Shelley Roberts, who has held the position since
mid-2008.

Roberts established Tiger Airways Australia as a major national airline,
leading it from infancy to profitability, Tiger Airways Holdings Group CEO Tony
Davis said.

"After completing her hand-over to Crawford, she intends to take a
well-deserved break," he said in a statement.

Rix has had more than 30 years experience in the industry. He has held
senior positions with several UK airlines including Dan Air, Bmi
Regional and bmibaby.

During his time at bmibaby, he brought the airline to the top position in
the UK, in terms of reliability and punctuality among low-cost carriers, Tiger
said.

Rix will relocate to Melbourne in the coming months to begin his new role.
Tiger started flying in Australia in November 2007, based at Melbourne's
Tullamarine Airport and Adelaide.

The airline is also due to start flying from Brisbane to Melbourne, Adelaide
and Rockhampton this month
