QANTAS AIRWAYS LTD will exit its 33.32% stake in Jetstar Japan through an 8.2 billion yen ($52.11 million) share buyback deal. The move transitions the budget carrier to local ownership and triggers a full rebranding that will drop the Jetstar name. The divestment allows the airline to refocus capital on its core operations in Australia and its primary international networks.
