Is It Just Me or Jetstar and Qantas Are Not That Bad

In the last 2 years to date I’ve taken 49 flights from both Jetstar and Qantas. A lot more pre COVID going back to 2012.

I’m well aware of the common held view that they’re both terrible but in my experience they were not that bad especially JQ with the bad rap.

Apart from the 30mins - 1 hour delay with Jetstar, the only 3 times I’ve got a significant delays were with:

  • 5 hours delay with Qantas going from Melbourne to Auckland but they didn’t cancel the flight and that was in June 2022 when COVID travel were a thing.
  • 3 hours delay with Jetstar going from Sydney to Ho Chi Minh in July 2022.
  • 2 hours delay with Jetstar going from Melbourne to Ho Chi Minh City in May 2023.
  • 1 cancelled flight from Sydney to Ho Chi Minh in October 2022. Rescheduled to 22 hours later.
  • 1 misplaced pram in July 2022. Got it 24 hours later.

3 major delays and 1 cancel and 1 missing pram out of 49 flights is a pretty good run IMO.

Am I too easy on them or have I been considered lucky ?

  • Apparently even Joyce flies other airlines now.

  • They are alight. But my first preference is still JAL then followed by SIA.
