Jetstar New A320/A321 Dates

[Brad Myer]

Here are the planned entry into service dates for the new A320/A321s that are on the way:

A320:

VH-VGZ -15 June 2009

A321:

VH-VWX - 21 May 2009
VH-VWW - 9 June 2009
VH-VWV - 29 June 2009

Thanks

So where are they headed... I presume they are freeing up some A320's to head across to Domestic NZ?

[Brad Myer]

A321s will apparently be repalcing A320s on Intl Asian services.

MEL-DRW-SIN
BNE-DRW-DPS
CNS-DRW-SIN
PER-SIN
etc

Thanks

They haven't hired cabin crew in Aus for a little while, the only recent recruitment was in Auckland/Christchurch so presumably the A320's freed up from the 321 deliveries will be moving to NZ.

So the regos are being delivered in reverse order. Its a shame they not use the A321 to fly to new places like Perth- Bangkok instead of just on existing routes.

Please refrain from quoting the whole previous post in your post, it is not necessary, thank you - mod

It's all about priority. They see it as a priority to expand JQ into NZ to replace QF than start exploring more expansion from PER to Asia.

looks like VH-VWX is due for delivery soon

Will the A321's continue to operate MEL-OOL/TSV/CNS or will they be going back to A320's?

Great news, So 68 A320/A321s to go

Any news on Star Class for the International 321s?

I recently overheard a JQ cabin crew talking about the differences configuration for the new 321s. 1 toilet at the front and 3 at the back. Full galley at rear and a loss of one of the forward galley units (aft on R1 door).
