low cost carriers

I've just redeemed a Jetstar credit voucher for a flight in New Zealand. The voucher covered most of the cost of the flight, but there was an extra amount of NZD9.75 to pay. The only way to pay for this was by credit card, and Jetstar very kindly added on a NZD5 credit card fee! I realise...

And a "what could have been" had Indigo been the successful bidder for VAH back when they were in administration. At an Indigo controlled VA, It could've would've been a mixed Boeing/Airbus at VA right now as VA transitions out of 737s in favour of A320neos. Source: Cebu Pacific officially...

My partner and I have called it this for ages as it wasn't our first choice of airline and we'd found it pretty ordinary in the past. However with some vouchers from a cancelled trip we had decided to go to the Queensland from Victoria. Two trips cancelled due to lockdowns and we are flying...

More Embraers on the way for QFLink, more A320s for Jetstar Australia and new Qantas routes to be announced soon.... what could they possibly be?! —— QANTAS AND JETSTAR EXPAND TO MEET DOMESTIC DEMAND, ADD MORE AIRCRAFT Qantas is expanding its three-year contract with Alliance Airlines...

OMG... just completed a survey about Scoot and it's put VA into the LCC category! :eek:

The United States and Western European members of the UN Security Council called Wednesday for the International Civil Aviation Organization to urgently investigate Belarus' forced diversion of a commercial flight to Minsk between Greece and Lithuania to arrest an opposition journalist on board...

I could be completely incorrect but it seems the Jetstar website may be revealing the amount they get paid by Qantas for an award seat. I was just searching for some domestic Jetstar award flights and similar to any other redemptions when you reach the payment stage (but before you make...

Confirming guest is allowed into the lounge, both flying JQ? Seems so, just not sure if any catches due to being free.

Apologies if this has been answered before but does anyone know why Qantas codeshare on Jetstar domestic flights when you can’t even earn points or SCs with the QF codeshare? There are heaps of QF codeshare flights on Jetstar at the Melb T4 terminal but why do they need to codeshare? Is it to...

Looking at using QFF points to purchase a JQ ticket. Only options through Q website are Starter and Max. If I purchase Starter fare can I then purchase baggage separately on Jetstar website? The Max bundle is overkill. Starter plus some baggage would be ok.

Perhaps I'm thinking into it too much but a Jetstar 787 just positioned AVV-SYDL https://flightaware.com/live/flight/VHVKH/history/20210412/2300Z/YMAV/YSSY Jetstar had proposed using 787's on domestic/NZ flights (on the basis that borders stay open). So I wonder if brining one to Sydney is the...

Hi All, I have a $25 Jetstar hotel voucher, booking window up to 21st of March. Message me if you would like it

I'm trying to find a downloadable timetable for direct Jetstar flights from Adelaide to Hobart -is this possible or am I being too optimistic

Hi all, question regarding booking an airfare with JQ. I have upcoming planned travel with my 3 year old. Is it possible to (possibly call them) and book us 2 in different fare classes? Ie the adult flying with Max bundle, whilst the child flies in the basic bundle. We don't need bags for...

Hi All Booked MEL-SYD on JQ using a credit voucher and then paid for a QF flight home. All good so far, trouble is JQ have cancelled JQ502 for the past 8 days including this morning (I hoped they were alternating weekly cancellations with JQ504 but it appears not). To ensure I can get to...

I thought the results shared by Jetstar's on customer panel survey results are interesting. I did think Gold Coast and Cairns would become the new Bali.

I am recently retired so am planning some domestic trips using only carry on luggage. Jetstar specifies on its website that max carry on sizes are 56x36x23cm. A non-Jetstar source quotes a max size of 115cm (adding all bag dimensions together), but I can't find any reference to this on the...

I was just having a look at some flights on the Qantas website, and Jetstar of course appears as an option. But I can't help noticing that some of the Jetstar flights listed on the Qantas website are considerably more expensive than the same flights booked on the Jetstar website. Take JQ500...

Not sure if its a system glitch - flying JQ from Syd to OOL - booked via the QF website ... just had a notification that my flight had changed (unfortunately not to QF) ... appears that the new JQ flight is departing T3. I thought all JQ domestic had shifted across to T2 at SYD?

Hi, My daughter and partner are travelling Hobart to Brisbane next week on JetStar. I want to use 2 lounge vouchers for them, but I just wonder if they are worthwhile. Sure, it is only a regional lounge, but they are facing a long time on Jetstar. The trouble is that the lounge only opens 1...
