wonder if JetStar has had a word with its shareholder, or does this relate to JetStar Asia and not Jetstar Australia?

Malaysian budget carrier AirAsia and Britain's Virgin Group, which is controlled by billionaire Richard Branson, hold stakes of 16 percent each in AirAsia X. Japanese leasing firm Orix and Bahrain-based Manara Consortium hold stakes of 10 percent each, while the rest is held by Aero Ventures, a firm owned by AirAsia Chief Executive Tony Fernandes and his business associates.

If that is still the case which i believe so, then Sir Richard could end up owning part of Jetstar which could not happen, and if it did, then Jetstar could become Virgin Blue's low cost carrier Just kidding but interesting. Basically i could not see this merger happening. |

BTW I think you will find this only relates to Jetstar Asia. Jetstar Asia, Jetstar Aus and Jetstar Pacific (Vietnam) are all different companies with a common major shareholder which is Qantas. Just because they sell an interest in one of their companies, doesn't mean they are selling an interest in all. |

Branson only has a small stake in Air Asia X. I don#t believe he hahs any interests in Air Asia.
