Australian budget airline Virgin Blue said Monday it intends to make a formal bid for rival carrier Ansett, but only after it has looked at the company's books.
``We will put in a formal bid when we get access to information, but we haven't cited exactly when,'' said Virgin Blue's commercial chief, David Huttner.
``We hope to do so soon and we are in discussions with parties such as the Lang Corporation who might make that possible,'' he added.
