It seems the cutbacks are coming to Jetstar more than QF as far as pilots go.
Wasn't Jetstar supposed to be gearing up for the 787 this year? Bit hard to do with a freeze on recruitment.
Fuel costs are now 50% of Jetstar's operating costs and Dixon said that business travel was holding up whilst the "leisure market" was softening.
