The fall in the Australian dollar has resulted in a shift in demand toward south-east Asian travel destinations, such as Bali instead of Hawaii, which has become more expensive when hotels and spending are included, says Jetstar Group chief executive Jayne Hrdlicka​.

But we are seeing there is more demand going into south-east Asia – Bali in particular – and a little bit less going into more expensive travel options."
