At the end of the days, the regions begged for Jetstar to come to there towns and that airfares we're to expenses.
Instead the regions are now learning the reality of business and the true cost of running an air-service to an small town. With the JQ introduction NZ has been forced to review all its regional cost to keep its self profitable, therefore any regional route that is bleeding will get axed.
WAG-AKL it didn't really need an service, PMR is an 45minute drive away. Jetstar starting PMR pretty killed the need to WAG to get services. 45minutes is an pretty short drive, it can take 45minutes to do an 20km drive within Auckland to get to the airport!
