Hi ex QF
You would have noted I am sure that PPT is a high end market. Very expensive on the ground as well as in the hotels of repute there. The demogrpahic JQ attracts, who would normally sit at home and poke steak knives through cornflake boxes because they like the noise it makes could not afford the on ground costs.
Likewise the regular PPT SLF will happily fly on the full service TN services, on the QF codeshare if they can at a reasonable price.
For a reference, check thr JQ HNL service - the MEL nonstop canned and an extra QF 763 added to the 3 out of SYD.
Why you ask??? Our passengers were avoid in and still are avoiding the JQ services like the plague.
The JQ product will work on some markets, but never on others - it's simply horses for courses.
Best regards
EWL
