It seems if a Qantas passenger farts it's news worthy but I didn't read a whisper of
this in the press.
Incident: Jetstar A332 over Pacific on Oct 24th 2011, engine shut down in flight

A Jetstar Airways Airbus A330-200, registration VH-EBJ performing flight JQ-26 from Tokyo Narita (Japan) to Cairns,QL (Australia) with 161 passengers, was enroute over the Pacific Ocean about one hour into the crossing towards Australia when the crew needed to shut the right hand engine down due to low pressure in the fuel pumps. The aircraft turned around and diverted to Osaka's Kansai Airport (Japan) for a safe landing about 2.5 hours after departure.
The flight was subsequently cancelled.
Anyone able to give anymore details?
BTW; Does anyone know how they are making such fantastic profits with 161 passengers?
