Christchurch Airport Closure Causes JetStar Diversion.

Christchurch Airport has been closed due to an earthquake in the area which has caused the evacuation of the radar centre. All JetStar services to and from the airport are therefore cancelled. JQ159 from Melbourne with A320 VH-VGP was en route and diverted to Hobart before returning to Melbourne as JQ7159.
