The Airline: Ansett Australia and Vintage Uniform




Ansett Australia, Ansett, Ansett Airlines of Australia, or ANSETT-ANA as it was commonly known in earlier years, was a major Australian airline group, based in Melbourne. The airlines flew domestically within Australia and to destinations in Asia during its operation in 1996. The airline was placed into administration in 2001 after suffering financial collapse, and subsequent organised liquidation in 2002, subject to deed of company arrangement. Ansett operated for 66 years and 11 days (4th March, 2002) after its first takeoff from Hamilton, Victoria.

 This is from the late 70's when the hostess were wearing Ansett Orange. The bee-hive hats are gone but the newer red hats are reminiscent of their predecessors.
