A couple of LCC cancellations.

This evening my partners' Jetstar flight SIN-MEL (the infamous JQ8) for mid-late May was cancelled and his booking moved 7 hrs earlier via PER, with a four hour layover in PER.

Then a couple of hours later my Scoot flight SIN-MEL for mid May (four days earlier) was cancelled and my booking moved 9 hours earlier.

At first I thought it was just another typical JQ7/8 issue. But now I am thinking this is the fuel price is really starting to bite and will see more of this - LCCs rationalising their flying.
