I can't help but ask what Jetstar Asia' next step will be.
To go it alone with their small fleet and lack of other partnerships seems a hard road to take. Even if you differ with you business partners, given the benefits of their brand and network, why would you go it alone?
It also seems interesting how Temasek, who has a large stake in Jetstar Asia, could strategically have continued to balance this (1) with their interest in Tiger when Tiger OZ is so clearly targetting Jetstar and (2) the fact that Jetstar is part of the Qantas group and Temasek is key to SIA and Silkair.
I can't help but ask if this is part of a bigger picture in the play by Qantas Grp, SIA/Tiger and Air Asia to become the pan Asia Pacific carriers.
