Cathay Pacific files formal objection to Jetstar Hong Kong - Business Traveller Asia

Perhaps Cathay should finally embrace LCC's and create their own if they're so threatened by Jetstar.

“Handing over Hong Kong’s air traffic rights to a carrier that is a franchise controlled by an Australian airline that itself can influence the Australian government’s negotiations with Hong Kong creates a clear conflict-of-interest where Hong Kong loses out.”

I think the only one losing out in Hong Kong are those that pay higher fares because the chance for increased competition isn't there.

And may be battled in the courts.
