Jetstar Airways, the budget arm of Qantas, has canceled some flights due to a global software recall affecting over 6,000 Airbus A320 jets. The recall, ordered by Airbus, requires immediate repairs—mainly reverting to earlier software—before the planes can return to service.

While Jetstar is affected, Qantas and Virgin Australia report no impact on their fleets. The disruption has caused significant delays at Melbourne Airport, highlighting the scale of one of Airbus’ largest recalls in its 55-year history.
