    QZ drops Cairns to Bali

    Likely too much capacity as Jetstar previously have come and gone on the route, they have just put a A321N on the route which increased seat count very recently.

    Jetstar B787 Reliability Issues

    VKG might be the first getting the heavy check alongside cabin upgrade. Unless it’s unexpected urgent maintenance. They did state Jan 2026 but that might be when it returns to ops. Still in HKG.

    Flybuys Targeted Bonus Promotions

    Someone on the self serve next to me the other week won $5. No doubt these promotions are somewhat built into pricing anyway, it’s never free, marketing budget still comes from somewhere. 100 million customers per month chances are probably pretty slim.

    Jetstar Delays/Cancellations

    I had a classic reward JQ MEL-HNL once and they put me on QF via Sydney when it got canceled. It appears only selected people got transferred to the QF flight, it still went out pretty empty also. My other party on the flight on a cash fare didn’t get a transfer. Same Balance sheet between the...

    Cairns-based East Air launches Cairns to Hamilton Island, adds Dash 8s

    Interesting reading that, Alan Milne who was the Skytrans boss is the owner. It looks like he no longer works at Skytrans. Could this perhaps take on some of the Rex routes?

    Card payment sucharges banned in Australia from 2026

    Always been a weak spot. I’ll never forget how the airlines previously exploited the ‘per passenger per sector’ rort last decade by paying with card, and it was something like $8.

    Jetstar Delays/Cancellations

    Good call. MEL-SIN-MEL now cancelled this Sunday. From reports they are not putting people on QF, simply moving to another day and asking people to submit accommodation receipts.

    QantasLink to fly to Christmas & Cocos (Keeling) Islands

    I assume Virgin ended the contract as they are ending A320 ops in November. They have held it from the Skywest days as far as I recall.

    Up to $800 off Qantas flights to Paris

    Surely with QR doubling its Aussie flights essentially overnight this is starting to bite across the market.

    Cannot Purchase Jetstar Excess Baggage

    Might be able to add 7kg to carry on if they give you the option to increase like they do for domestic.

    Jetstar Delays/Cancellations

    Early build 787s which have been pushed hard and are all due for the first heavy check about now, so they are not in great form. D checks start in 4 months and the aircraft are screaming out for these checks!

    Jetstar Delays/Cancellations

    Still no sign of either 2x787s returning to service, so the cancellations roll on. 😐 Today’s MEL-SIN extended onto coughet as a positioning flight to run Wednesday’s coughet to Sydney service which they used to rescue stranded Melbourne pax last night. So JQ8 is cancelled tonight, and tomorrow...

    The flight was cancelled If they are now down a second 787, schedule will be a very problematic VKB in HKT VKG in HKG unscheduled

    Qantas to debut new uniforms in 2027

    That’s pretty much sums AJs personality doesn’t it? From what I’ve heard anyway.

    Virgin Australia to Reconfigure 737 Fleet - Spend $110M

    7 to 8kg with max one item for the bin, and one personal under the seat would work for me If they want to go higher that would be good also, The Scoot 10kg is great and we have used many times for intra Asia hops.
