Another Jetstar Base to close ?

[smogbound]

I have heard several rumours , some from quite reliable types , that Jetstar is about to close yet another base - not sure if its Perth or Brisbane.
Does anyone know which base is to go :\ and when or why ?

[High-Bypass]

If they were that reliable, why don't they know which base (if any) it is?

How many aircraft are BNE based?

Australia :}

Most likely Darwin, as most of the flights can be handled by Singapore based crews!

[smogbound]

That was apparently the reason behind the proposed closure ,cheaper overseas pilots crewing the flights, most likely out of Perth to Sing and Indon - there will not be much left for the Aussies soon. Now there's a familiar theme.

I heard it was Perth :ugh:

I heard it was Perth, not Darwin.
Perhaps they will lease the no longer needed office space to Boston Consulting ??

I feel really sorry for anone who had a base close on them and moved to Perth just to have it happen all over again . Better to buy a Winnebago than a house if you work for JQ.

[OhForSure]

Where are all the new pilots being sent at the moment? How hard is it to get a SYD base? Not applying, just interested. Thanks all.

Id say Perth as JQ110/109 went over to 3K111/112

And JQ114/115 is operated by 9V aircraft

So the only flight out of Perth operated by Aussie crew that base here is JQ116/117 to DPS
