Jetstar to extend Perth-Denpasar services

Jetstar aumenta sus servios entre Perth y Denpasar


In mid-2009, Qantas' wholly-owned subsidiary company, Jetstar Airways (Jetstar) plans to extend its current four-weekly Perth-Denpasar and three-­weekly Perth-Jakarta return services to Singapore.



These services will be operated using one-class A320 aircraft configured with 177 seats. It is intended that Qantas will code share on these services. A schedule of the planned services will be provided to the Commission once it is finalised.

Under lASe Determinations 109/2007 and 218/2004, Qantas holds an
allocation totalling 850 seats per week and three services per week of beyond capacity on the Indonesia route. A further 5,790 seats per week on 20 services per week (with a maximum of four per week able to be operated via Denpasar) remain as available capacity.

Qantas withdrew its Perth-Denpasar-Singapore services at the
commencement of the Northern Winter 2008 scheduling season, so this capacity allocation is currently unutilised. As Jetstar's new services will require a total of 1,239 seats of beyond capacity on seven frequencies on the Indonesia route, we are required to apply for an additional capacity allocation for the balance of required capacity for Jetstar's planned operations.

Allocation Sought
Qantas seeks an allocation of 389 seats per week and four frequencies of beyond Indonesia capacity on the following basis:
 
- the allocation is requested for a period of five years from the date of the determination;
- the capacity will be fully used by 31-Jul-09;
- the capacity may be utilised by Qantas or another Australian carrier which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Qantas; and
- the capacity may be used to provide joint services with Qantas or any whollyMowned subsidiary of the Qantas Group.
