Is it just me or is JetStar strangely similar to SkyStar?  This was
the name of the former Ansett A320s (not to mention its often
referred to early nickname DeathStar).

Also of note:

-The QF Domestic fleet will be 737 and 767 only (the A330 has
curiously not been mentioned.  I guess it is assumed to be going to
the QF International fleet only)

-No more all-economy planes on the regular Qantas Domestic Fleet

-Ordering of an additional 5 737-800s to replace recently retired 737-300s
