Jetstar is axing 20 ground handling jobs at Launceston and Hobart airports.
The announcement comes just two weeks after Jetstar said it was shutting its Hobart base, giving 40 crew the option of redundancy or relocating.
Spokesman Simon Westaway says the cuts follow a decision by the company to put its ground handling services out to tender.
Mr Westaway says the contract has been awarded to Launceston company Air Trade.
He says the company will attempt to redeploy as many of the affected staff as possible and will be offering redundancies
