After Ansett collapsed, a group of businessmen saw an opportunity in reviving the regional aviation part of the business. A consortium of businessmen comprising a group of Singaporean investors and a collection of Australian private investors eventually reached an agreement with the two sets of administrators, the government, the unions and the staff to purchase the Hazelton and Kendell turbo-prop passenger airlines businesses, leading to the formation of Regional Express, more affectionately known as Rex.

Today they operate a fleet of 89 aircraft, to over 30 routes in NSW, Northern Queensland, South Australia, Victoria and Tasmania.
