Yes. Poor load factor.

JQ might want to change there mind. Hervery Bay airport is, sometime in the near future, being moved and rebuilt as a International Airport. |

Gerald, I'm sure Jetstar would change their mind if the numbers are there. Having said that, its up to Joe Public to USE the service.

Well, whilst I do NOT work for JQ, I believe that the low load factor reason must be false. The DOTARS figures show that the load factors for HVB-SYD for each month from January this year were 92.1%, 89.4%, 88.3%, 87.0%, 80.1%, 77.3% and 83.8%. All this averages out to 85.1%, making HVB-SYD the fifth highest route in the country in terms of load factor for the year to date. If HVB-SYD was dropped due to poor load factor, then all but 4 other routes in the country must be in trouble , especially KGI-PER, PER-ZNE, PER-KTA and CBR-SYD, which are all languising at the sub 60% level!
