Muddy, you’re unnecessarily frightening the horses mate.

Notwithstanding, would appreciate you providing a link to a reputable source clarifying that it is Qantas’ stated public position that:
Qantas (will) grow Jetstar and focus Mainline on specific routes.
Nothing I can recall says much more than; Qantas is a full service international carrier, Jetstar an LCC international carrier with the route structure of Jetstar to be determined by market demand for international LCC’s.

It’s Hugh’s decision of course, but IMHO jumping out of Mainline right now is a gutsy call and not one I would recommend my 28 yr old son make if he were a pilot.

Nevertheless, I’ll admit that should the GOAL not be kicked by the end of the 2010/11 FY, it will never be. In the meantime, don't expect much growth for either Qantas or Jetstar.
