Jetstar launches Various Routes for CNS/CHC/MCY/AKL/DUD/HZL/SYD/OOL

I agree, it’s a big ask for the Hamilton market, especially for a route like OOL, that would be wafer thin yield. I do note the comments from the NZ side saying how hard they have worked to get these routes…wasn’t easy…long talks…would indicate that Jetstar is being subsidised significantly here.

ADL-NZ would be a good option for JQ also.

The only service from ADL to NZ is by Air NZ to AKL.
IMHO any additional routes from ADL to NZ would be good and likely succeed, even if ~3 days a week.
ADL pax will going via SYD & MEL.

Jetstar have already tried ADL-AKL though and it didn't last very long at all – only a few months IIRC.

This is great news. I travel across the ditch frequently needing to visit the central North Island area and absolutely loathe the commute down from Auckland.

Now for the other airlines to join on so I can keep my status with Qantas/Air NZ. Though I am not hopeful this will happen.

You can earn Qantas points and status credits on these new Jetstar flights assuming you purchase an extra bundle.

In a rubbish Y only configuration unfortunately which is why we will have to continue travelling via the Eastern states. I miss the ADL-AKL QR tag flight
