The Captain should be demoted or punished for this total disregard of the curfew. Whether he was leaned on by a tosser manager or not does not obsolve him/her from his duty to obey rules including a curfew no matter what their opinion. I don't believe there would be a QF pilot that would have the balls or stupidity to try this on. Flagrant disregard for the curfew by the crew and Jetstar is a total joke.
