All this tell me ennui is you are normal, i.e. you have an ill informed twit of a mother in law

[QUOTE=BankAngle50] or the bottom-dwellers that work there.

With a comment like that, you seem the type that would fit right into the jetstar image you paint. I work for the mainlain, my partner however, not by choice, was transfered into jetstar. i have had some trips with them and quiet honestly they are not that bad. it has opened up a market which helps people who couldn't have prev travelled by air. as for the bus comment, you push carts collecting trash. theres a whole wide world out there (belive it or not) and it can be alot more glam morous!
I love it though.. and thankfully the group i work with within qantas are fantastic, and neither have traits similar to the above two comments made from people re bottom dwellers and bus people.

Have to disagree with the adverse comments about Jet* New jets, leather seats and...... practical uniforms! Have used em about 6 times this year between TVL BNE NZCH and have no complaints. Arrive early, get to the front of the Blue Queue and always get an emergency exit window seat. Select nominated seat on line for International leg. No worries so far. Take own grub and headset - sorted! What other services do you need? Looking forward to my $79 dollar trip back to Brissy next Sunday.

I avoid Jetstar like the plague - not because I dislike the airline, but because I can't stand the punters that fly it! The great unwashed, the overweight, the lower class, the people who should catch the bus. Gimme Qantas anyday!

big Jan Irish or kiwis!
Sistema No one has been forced to leave mainline to go there, as you Infer. I was not aware that anyone had taken up the slots there. In any case i'm sorry that your other ½ is there, but that doesn’t change the fact that they are sh1t airline and merely an industrial tool, devised in part to destroy our conditions. Glad to here you support this endeavor rather than your own colleges! Your naivety suggests you where 2 strips and cant see what’s really going on. Anyway this has been bashed to death on Qrewroom!

oh BankAngel... get your facts right sista. I didn't say she was from the mainline, there has actually been a whole other company which started for jetstar, and that little company brought out some brilliant crew. Whist wearing the red roo uniform if i remember?
Although i must retract my words in regards to working for the mainline, because to have branded myself to the same likes of such a bucket mouth stewardess as yourself, would be unfair. Soon your type won't have a clue who to hate, because we are all going to be wearing the same uniform! Imagine that! But don't worry, the only crew from the actual real mainline (the stagnant one) who we will be crossing paths with will be those doing japan (the most senior) who i find to be the most pleasent and respectable crew from the 'southern bases'...
From the way you responed to my comment it seems catering should clean you out with the dirty carts, or as previously painted, just chuck you in a bag liner on a 25min turn around.
Jet Star, like every other airline is not perfect and has its problems. But those guys do a great job considering.
