I note that Ben Sandilands has either been trolling PPRUNE or someone has contacted him as he's got an article on Crikey about Kremin's numbers:

I registered on the trial to have a look at his comments but it's not working as advertised.

So, does anyone have the additional bits and pieces to this start:

Qantas is inflating its stock exchange filings of monthly data for its Jetstar International operations with those of its Jetstar New Zealand domestic operation.

The anomalous figures have been referred to the ASX following an analysis of the January traffic figures by “Captain Kremin”, a regular poster on Pprune.org, the Professional Pilots Rumour Network.
I'd be interested in Ben's take on the numbers. If his analysis confirms Kremin's it may be worth forwarding the info to AIPA. I've got no problems with J* being talked up but I'm certainly not impressed at having it talked up to this extent to the detriment of mainline with the sorts of distortions that appear to be going on here.
