Novice 110
An example of Qantas Airways directly subsidising Jetstar.
This was straight from a management pilot whilst briefing some mainline pilots in late 2010.
"We're not sure how it happened, but we've just found out that Qantas has been paying the ACARS bills for the Jetstar 330's since they've had them. Of course now that it has been identified they will have to start paying for it themselves."
I think it about sums up the whole situation rather well...
