“These new low fare flights reinforce our commitment to Tasmanian tourism and mark our next sustainable step-up in growth of Jetstar operations in Launceston, a community we have proudly served since 2004 alongside Qantas,” said CEO Bruce Buchanan.
The move comes after Tiger Airways recently announced it would cut its Melbourne-Launceston flights from August 2. Tiger has also cut its Adelaide-Hobart services from August.
