Why didn’t they just get Jetstar to operate these flights? Could a LCC not bid for the contract?
I would be willing to bet that the Network cost base is lower than Jetstar's. The Network A320 Captain rate is definitely lower.

There is more to this of course, look ahead to a Network base in Perth with 80-90% A320 aircraft and think about what they could do from there.
