SIA is advertising ground staff for its operations, roles start in August for training.

I’d say Jetstar might kick off operations perhaps just prior to Christmas with a flight from OOL/BNE/MEL, if fuel pricing drops.

Hard to see how Qantas will operate anything. Alliance is obviously off the table now, NJS has a stalled EA. Might be wise to get Jetstar to run first up to see how the demand is.
I would say JQ's announcement is not too far away, however, I'd think QF would be holding off until the 4-month mark depending on fuel prices and/or sorting out issues with the subsidiaries (NJS) or contractors (Alliance). I can't see Network getting involved.

I'd think QF may want to show off a mainline aircraft on WSI opening day, but I won't be surprised if they do delay QF-branded services out of WSI if they decide to launch group revenue services with just JQ to start off with.
