Since the beginning of the new year I have been forced to travel by Jetstar between Newcastle and Brisbane with Qantas Link withdrawing their early am departure from Newcastle. However it has now gotten worse with cutting back to only two flights a day (from the original four)between Newcastle and Brisbane, departing around midday and late afternoon. So now it seems Deathstar will be my only choice and no status credits either as my company will only by the basic Jetstar Tickets.
