LOW cost air carrier Jetstar is in negotiations with air traffic authorities in Asia aiming to expand its route network, with China, India and Laos leading the list of potential new routes, Jetstar Asia chief executive officer Chong Phit Lian says.


The expansion plans and talks come as the carrier is preparing to take delivery of three additional aircraft later this year that will boost carrying capacity by 46 per cent.


It currently uses Airbus A320 aircraft in its fleet of seven aircraft.

It's the only places that JQ can expand, where there is no other competition - as people would not put up with the cough service and overly complicated 'extras charging' system otherwise.

They would have to source more aircraft to service these routes.

Incidentally, does JetStar Asia (3K) operate from the low cost carrier terminal in Singapore? If so, is it easy to transfer between it and Changi (or terminals 1-3)?

Thanks, oz_mark. I did see that but I thought it referred to JQ flights rather than 3K.

3K, JQ and VF all operate from T1 at SIN. Claimed as a competitive advantage over Tiger.
