Singapore-based budget airline Jetstar Asia will close down at the end of July, its Australian owner Qantas has announced. The low-cost carrier has struggled with rising supplier costs, high airport fees and increased competition from other airlines in the region. Qantas says the closure will provide it with A$500m ($325.9m; £241.4m) to invest towards renewing its fleet of aircraft, adding that it will redeploy 13 planes for routes across Australia and New Zealand. The closure of Jetstar Asia will not impact its Australia-based Jetstar Airways operations, nor those of Jetstar Japan, according to a statement from Qantas. "We have seen some of Jetstar Asia's supplier costs increase by up to 200 per cent, which has materially changed its cost base," said Qantas Group Chief Executive Vanessa Hudson in the statement. The discount airline, which has operated flights for over 20 years, is set to make a A$35m loss this financial year. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c1e65yypd87o EDIT : Jetstar Airways will continue to fly from Australia into Asia including to all its popular destinations across Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, Japan and South Korea.

It’s all about one’s perception! Example: getting a flat tire on the way to work would be considered back luck or annoying or inconvenient by most. But a person with an attitude of gratitude would focus on the fact on how fortunate they are that they have a job and subsequently would not be as bothered.

I never said that the 45/183 day rule was “not simple”.

I also used the word “probably”. Unlike you, who more emphatically said: • “there was no grey area at all.” - WRONG 🤣, and • “all very simple” - WRONG, AGAIN! 🤣🤣

Nope, just No 4 on the list above. I originally posted that there would “probably” be grey areas. And surprise, surprise there was!

4/ Australian economic interests such as reasonable amount of money in an Australian bank account So how much exactly will be a reasonable amount of money?

Because they are probably all grey areas thus adding many more years to when/IF these changes are ever implemented. 🤣

What are the four factor tests again, please?

Closing date for submissions was 2 years ago. Nothing has changed yet. Nothing is scheduled to change yet. Yawn. 🥱 💤

Do not ride motorcycles in Thailand.

the link mentions nothing about retired expats

Because retired expats cannot own a car in Vietnam. Next.

Still waiting for your previous, relentless scaremongering campaign about non resident tax rates to be legislated. How much longer you think? 🤣🤣🤣
