Jetstar Airways’ top 10 one-way city pairs by weekly seats from Melbourne
A wholly-owned subsidiary of the Qantas Group, Jetstar is an Australian LCC based at Melbourne Tullamarine and Avalon airports. Established by Qantas in 2003 to capitalise on the growth LCCs, Jetstar operates an extensive domestic network and is the world's largest long-haul LCC, operating to destinations in the Pacific Ocean and Asia, with plans to commence service to Europe in the future. The airline, which participates in the Qantas Frequent Flyer Program, operates a fleet of Airbus A320-family and A330 aircraft. Jetstar also operates domestic service in New Zealand, and the brand is also operating in Singapore (as Jetstar Asia) and Vietnam (as Jetstar Pacific), which parent company Qantas has equity stakes in.
