JH says consumer sentiment is weak.
Other news agencies say (Jetstar's) consumer sentiment is weak due foreign competition.
A week ago JQ were denying they were reducing Darwin services to Bali.
Roll forward a week & they confirm half the DRW-DPS services are cancelled.
But the great news for those in the NT is, you can fly one stop to DPS as follows.
DRW-SIN-DPS
The writing was on the wall for Australian Domiciled LCC operations out of DRW a long time ago. You could get return airfares & accommodation to Bali with a foreign LCC for the same price of the JQ return ticket.
The JQ theme is repetitive. Announce a new route with all the fan fare only to pull out when the numbers don't look good. The Perth to Lombok is another good example.
