Ya gotta laugh....this is from todays news:

JETSTAR is refusing to give any details over why it cancelled a flight out of Darwin yesterday morning, causing 150 people to change their travel plans.
The 2am flight to Melbourne was not full but the airline denied it was cancelled to cut costs, saying "operational requirements" were behind the change.

The inconvenience came after their flight had earlier been changed from Saturday morning to yesterday - also without explanation.

Jetstar spokeswoman Andrea Wait told the Northern Territory News that the plane did not make it to Darwin.

But she said there was nothing wrong with the aircraft and there was no scheduling clash.

"It was an operational requirement that we had to cancel the flight," she said.

Asked several times what that meant, Ms Wait would only repeat it was an "operational requirement".
She said 150 seats were booked from a capacity of 177, but denied this was the reason for cancellation.
