I couldn't think of a better place to be stranded. Also that reason would have to allow an extension of portability.

I moved this down to the travel section in what is very likely a temporary organisational fit.
This is the former Strategic Airlines I see?

Reasons for allowing a discretionary extension The reasons for allowing a discretionary extension are specified in SSAct section 1218C: if the person or a family member of the person (section 23(14)) is: involved in a serious accident, seriously ill, hospitalised, or the victim of a robbery or serious crime, if the person is: involved in custody proceedings, required to remain overseas in connection with criminal proceedings, other than in respect of a crime alleged to have been committed by the person, unable to return because of war, industrial action, or social or political unrest in which the recipient is not willingly participating, or unable to return because of natural disaster, if a family member dies. |

Thousands of Australians are stranded in Thailand as budget carrier Air Australia goes under AIR Australia has been placed into voluntary administration, thousands of passengers stranded and its flights grounded after it was unable to pay its bills. Administrators KordaMentha posted the news about the troubled airline on its website early today, saying that flights would be grounded. It comes as the airline was denying it was broke as late as yesterday and on Wednesday had been continuing to sell tickets. "It currently appears that there are no funds available to meet operational expenses so flights will be suspended immediately," the statement read. "For clarity, it also appears highly unlikely there will be any flights in the short- to medium-term." www.theaustralian.com.au/business/aviation/hundreds-of-australians-are-stranded-in-thailand-as-budget-carrier-air-australia-goes-under/story-e6frg95x-1226273385062
