Jetstar Asia arrives in Broome

The low-cost carrier cancelled just 1 per cent of flights last month according to the latest BITRE data, beaten only by regional carriers Hinterland at 0.2 per cent, and Virgin Australia Regional Airlines, which cancelled no flights at all.

As reported in The Australian, at least 17 crew members that were due to travel to Doha for the placement with Qatar have been told the program is on hold, while Virgin Australia is offering support to staff already in Doha seeking to return to Australia.
