		<description>That&#039;s a good point. Lower density overall may not make the option so  &lt;br&gt;attractive for LCCs after all.</description>

		<description>I have a hard time believing that a LCC would want a twin aisle A320 or 737, as it pretty much strips out one row of seats the whole length of the aircraft (5 across instead of 6 across) probably losing what 25 or so seats?. Maybe a large full service network carrier, such as Singapore Airlines, would consider this, but no way a LCC.</description>

		<description>Actually, Jetstar will be performing heavy maintenance on aircraft from both airlines. This gives some fuel to Joyce&#039;s announcement that they&#039;re investing in maintenance here in Australia and taking on more apprentices. Folks were wondering how they&#039;d justify the investment with JQ&#039;s fleet, but throw in AirAsia&#039;s as well and that&#039;s definitely enough to keep them busy :)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I&#039;m in agreement that this link up is all about a &#039;buying club&#039; and that it makes more sense than the marketing alliances. Keeping it to just two or three airlines with the same equipment and similar ideals will help as well.</description>
