Flight delay sequel to eight-hour ordeal

[Nigel S]

Yes they are, and in some cases with good reason.

The moral of the story is to not fly jetstar. First time i flew with them was the last time! Was an absolute joke. The only good aspect were the coffees i bought onboard and the flight crew. I recommend Virgin. Nothing personal against the people who work for jetstar or the people who enjoy flying with them. My personal opinion.

I've flown a couple of sectors on JQ (OOL-SYD and MEL-PER) and were excellent on both occasions, couldn't complain.

I do have 3 sectors coming up in August (PER-ADL, ADL-MEL, MEL-PER), so I guess that should provide another opportunity for judgement.

Give me a break. There is already an LCC in NZ with the same policies so this is nothing new for them...

You're missing the point Andrew. Yes, we know there are rules re checking in but this is but another example of the continual flow of bad press that is heading Jeststar's way.

It's like Qf having the oxy bottle issue with the 747 and all of a sudden every general publication was reporting on every little mx issue. The press love climbing into this stuff.
