Stumbled across the following from the Jetstar Website http://www.jetstar.com.au/flyingWithUs/airport/
Is this the end of pre-assigned seating when flying Jetstar? Surely not!

Free Seating
Like most low cost carriers Jetstar has a free seating policy.
It does not mean that you will miss out on sitting with your family.
We will pre-board passengers with small children and customers requiring special assistance who have made arrangements through Jetstar call centre.
All other passengers will be given a boarding priority on their boarding pass, this will be based on the time that you checked in.
For example: Passengers with numbers 1-50 will board the aircraft first followed by numbers 51 – 100.
