Jetstar 787's coming back?

How does Jetstar plan to fill 5 high-density Boeing 787s per week to coughet if passengers have to quarantine for a week after they get there?

I think sudoer is on the money. Even if you were restricted to quarantine in a hotel… 7 days by the beach in a resort? Not too shabby!

I've flown these recently on the OOL domestic routes and 4 out of 4 flights were delayed. Anyone know why they only ever use one door? It takes forever to board and to deplane all the passengers.

But 5 X weekly 787 seems a lot, particularly as for JQ coughet is a price sensitive market.

TG is also operating 4 X weekly flights from SYD to HKT...

And JQ's business class is just $500 less each way than TG's full flat offering. So they must be getting some solid sales on the route!

It looks like JQ is cutting frequencies from Feb, 1 weekly out of SYD and 2 weekly from MEL
