That’s so interesting
Sounded like light loadings or Covid ended it ?

So are they applying for these seats or does everyone get an even share?

VA will want Perth to Bali, and likely more frequency into the 3 Capitals. Even more frequency from Qantas Mainline would be good.

Jetstar has enough capacity they don’t need anymore!

Maybe Lombok would work from Melbourne or Sydney.

JQ ceased flying between Perth and Lombok in October 2014 after a year. Ironically the original flight number JQ111 is now used for the DPS-PER routing (terminating in ADL).
