Nope. The QLink 717, A320 and Dash 8 operation are reported separately to the mainline domestic and international figures. Hence why they should not be included when comparing fleet numbers and overall profit between ‘mainline’ and Jetstar. IE QLink are not ‘mainline’ for the purposes we are currently talking.
However, the Jetstar NZ profits (or losses because let’s be honest, no one would know from the annual report) are reported as part of the overall Jetstar performance. Therefore it’s appropirate that their fleet (including the Dash 8s) are included.
interestingly I think it was the Cutest of Borg who a number of years ago nailed JQ’s rubbery figures when they were including NZ domestic pax as part of their ‘stunning international growth’ numbers.
