Jetstar adds Melbourne - Colombo

I can’t see LAS happening? The city is in melt-down, tourist wise, with numbers plunging.

I went to LAS last year and it was decidedly less fun than 10 years ago :(

Resort fees are ridiculous… we paid USD45 or something for a bottle of water and ‘document service’… they’d notorize/witness two documents for you, for free. 🤷‍♂️

I reckon prices would have to come way down, and service and food improve for JQ to even consider the route.

And now on top of anything, Aussies are going to get sluggers an extra USD100 to visit national parks.
They said more medium term so I am thinking more 2030. Unknown what state the country will be in, however I can’t see the prices in Vegas dropping, it’s all double to triple pre pandemic.

Long Haul low cost isn’t really a proven model, they would be facing 14-16 hrs westbound, the low cost base advantage goes out the window with such long missions. Those savings made by using foreign labour hire becomes a drop in the ocean compared to the heavy fuel bill.
