Historic Milestone Marks New Era for Australian Aviation
Jetstar has made history by operating the first-ever commercial passenger flight from Western Sydney International Airport, marking a new era for Australian aviation. The sold-out service, flight JQ362, departed for the Gold Coast, with celebrations continuing throughout the day. Jetstar plans to operate up to 24 return services a week from Western Sydney, including daily services to the Gold Coast and Melbourne. The airline’s expansion into Western Sydney International Airport is expected to bring more choices and lower fares to the region’s residents. This development was first reported by Markets Insider.
