Jetstar Fleet and Operations (Post-Covid)

YXQ currently positioning from ASP to SIN as JQ8991

Jetstar Asia A320-200 9V-JSN is about to touch down in MEL after ferrying from Singapore as JQ903.

I presume it must be intended to join the Jetstar Australia fleet together with 9V-JSP.

VH-VKA has been dusted off and is currently positioning from ASP to OOL as JQ7997

B788 VKB has also been dusted off and positioned ASP MEL today as JQ7997
This leaves only 2 JQ B788s in ASP - VKD and VKE

Thanks for the information, Tristan. No doubt in readiness for recommencing Jetstar flights in March to HNL and DPS from both SYD and MEL.
