Jetstar wants to fly to the Philippines

[Viper6]

Awesome news thanks mate!

Is it likely rewards seats will also go on sale at this time?

Hmmm no business class seats released but some sporadic economy releases

Does the aircraft even have a Business class cabin?

From the press release:

..."The new services will operate three times a week using Jetstar’s next-generation Airbus A321LR"...

Might be waiting a while...

Oh so that next gen plane doesn’t even have business class at all? Crazy for a long haul flight…

Looks like dates in April 2026 are blacked out too

Well 7 hours doesn't really count as a long haul and that's what these aircraft are designed and configured to do.

Terrible connection time in BNE coming from MEL.

Better during daylight savings?

Anyone know why I can't book a one-way flight from Brisbane to Cebu, but I can book a return flight? Seems like all the one-way flights are blocked out?

Of course, you're only looking at Sunday/Wednesday/Friday?

Sorry my bad, I meant cannot book one way from Cebu to Brisbane

Yes, well that is a conundrum, somehow doubtful that every flight is already sold out for months.

Maybe it has something to do with charging in Philippines currency, since it seems like a few reward flights are able to be booked?

I haven't tried looking at reward flights.

I thought it had something to do with the delayed approval of flights from the Philippines. My sister has been waiting for the ex-CEB flights to come online.
