JQ738 schedule flight time
Could someone please explain why the Jetstar flight JQ738 is scheduled to take 95 minutes, Launceston to Melbourne, while all other Jetstar flights on this route take 65 minutes, Virgin 1 hour.
I rang Jetstar with this query but was unable to be connected to someone who could answer.
Thanks in anticipation.

Thank you all for your intelligent and entertaining replies.
I have now checked the Qantas booking site and it shows JQ738 with a flight time of 65 minutes.
I was a bit worried that there might have been an orange and silver Navajo.

Not a codeshare on a qantaslink dash perhaps?
Q400 has around the same time as the Jet (give or take 5 min). Even the Dash 300 is scheduled 80 minutes block time.
DIVOSH!
Thought that would get a response!
I knew the 400 would provide a similar blox time. Wasnt sure about the 300 When I used to give a **** and was an aviation nerd I could probably have told you what sort of equipment was used on that route and whether there was a codeshare or not.
Now that years in aviation has crushed my spirit I merely engage in idle speculation. I can't even be bothered to open a web page to check this sort of info these days.
