Jetstar confirms intention to suspend Townsville-Denpasar service

12 September, 2017

Jetstar Australia and New Zealand CEO Dean Salter confirmed the carrier intends to suspend Townsville-Denpasar service from 21-Mar-2018, as the carrier "cannot see a path to making it sustainable" after having operated the route for two years and has worked with the airport to keep the service operating (The Townsville Bulletin, 11-Sep-2017). Tourism and Events Queensland CEO Leanne Coddington will reportedly meet with new Jetstar CEO Gareth Evans to discuss opportunities for new flights to Townsville.
