Tigerair cancels flights between Australia and Bali again

Tigerair has once again cancelled its flights between Australia and Bali due to approval "issues" with Indonesian authorities, throwing the plans of hundreds of holidaymakers into disarray. No flights between Australia and the Indonesian tourist destination would operate Friday, the airline announced just before midnight Thursday. The airline could not say whether flights from the weekend onwards would also be affected. The disruption comes just weeks after the airline was forced to ground its flights between Bali and Perth, Adelaide and Melbourne when the Indonesian govt imposed what the airline called "new administrative requirements". Tigerair has been flying to Bali since March 2016, but the airline has not yet been granted the necessary licence to fly its own aircraft on the routes. <br/>
