The Vietnamese government is investigating the operations of Australian budget airline Jetstar Pacific.

A spokeswoman for Australia's Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade said authorities had prevented two Australian employees of the company from leaving Vietnam.

Australia first made representations on the issue to Vietnam on Christmas Eve. The two Australians are not being detained.

The ABC has reported the former director of Jetstar Asia Pacific was arrested on Thursday as part of an investigation.

It is not known what the investigation relates to.

AAP is awaiting a response from Jetstar.

Default Airline executives finally allowed to leave Vietnam

Quote:
TWO Qantas executives at the centre of an investigation into multimillion-dollar fuel-hedging losses in Vietnam have been allowed to return to Australia.

Jetstar Pacific's former chief operating officer, Daniela Marsilli, and its former chief financial officer, Tristan Freeman, flew back to Sydney yesterday, more than six months after Vietnamese authorities detained them shortly before they were to travel with their families to Australia for Christmas.

The pair were barred from leaving Vietnam while authorities investigated $US31 million ($36.5 million) in fuel-hedging losses in 2008 at the Vietnamese arm of Qantas's no-frills brand, Jetstar Pacific.
