We'll see how Jetstar deals with it.
G0od news. Then aa.com needs to be updated because it currently indicates JQ (and codeshares on JQ) are illegal. JQ really isn't set up for paper ticketing so it is inconceivable that JQ requires paper tickets (smells more like electronic ticket cannot be issued because of a check for invalid airline codes, causing JQ to fail, but the rules have changed allowing JQ but the Aautomated system still prohibits it). JQ check-in is likely to have real problems with your paper ticket, suspect they will have to contact QF about it.
