Jetstar Spin: Osaka cancelled due to Swine flu?!

news:www.goldcoast.com.au/article/20...top-story.html

When AIPA dug in its heels regarding the direct Mumbai flights and the allowances review, or lack of it, we got magnificent spin from QF management about how paying 4 tech crew about 50 bucks more was going mean the end of the service, or the operation of the the service by Jetstar. It was a load of hogwash of course.

Their counterparts in Jetstar obviously took note...

Swine Flu has come to the aid of Jetstar management, desperate to find another reason apart from exceeding poor patronage of their service from day one, to cancel the service.

Thank God for Swine Flu. It explains why the Jetstar flights have been climbing to FL390 out of both Tokyo and Osaka since last December.

Why is only the media fooled by this?
