No surprise that News Ltd picked up the "story".
Interesting to read the comments of one reader as well,
"Brett of Adelaide' says

I agree. Other airlines are not doing the same. They need to market more agressively, be more competative, and just 'suck it up'. ..

Interesting story and comments.

"If Jetstar has to cancel so many flights because of mechanical problems one has got to ask the question, should they be in the sky in the first place?"

Could not have said it better myself.

I agree entirely BUT I think you are isolating Jetstar more than they otherwise deserve. As I said previously, this applies to all the airlines :!:
