Got a text saying we were boarding so… Got a text saying we were boarding so lined up at Cairns. Got told to go and weigh bag so did. Then got told to go back to the end of the line for a weight sticker. Watched someone else do same but didn't get sent to back of line. Got into queue to board with lots of other passengers then told only certain seats were boarding first. Stayed in line & stood aside with some other people. Nobody said okay the rest can board, we just found out by watching others in our seat area get let through! Very unorganised, unprofessional and felt a bit discriminatory!

Jetstar Holidays is a scam Booked a Jetstar holiday package from Perth to Bali - our flight was cancelled due to technical issues (they’re fault) and they did nothing to recoup the costs or extend our trip to the package I originally booked. I spoke several times with different people at Jetstar holidays who basically had nothing to offer other than “we will try” to negotiate a refund for the first night from the hotel….uh ok, completely avoiding any questions about they’re policy in relation to flight cancellations for hotel/flight packages. When I did finally check in at the hotel I noticed the booking agent for our package was actually Expedia - so Jetstar has just sold the licence for these other travel groups to operate under their name. I don’t think I have actually spoken to one person from Jetstar in this whole week, including the staff at the Perth airport who said they worked for a third party called McKenzie’s and weren’t able to help me with any additional information or support. No one has called me back or emailed me to follow up on my calls or has provided an option that means I will actually get what I paid for. Do not book with them, absolute rip off company hiding behind third party providers so you have to spend hours trying to figure out what might be possible and they just don’t give a crap. Also, just had an update that our flight home has been cancelled….seriously.

Delayed 3 times Delayed 3 times. Refreshment voucher offered $8 AUD. Will buy very little in an airport. To get the voucher you have to exit departures and go to check-in counters and then pass through security checks all over again. My advice, use this airline only if you have no affordable alternative.

Happy we didn't crash Our flight was more than 2:30 hours late, the gate changed twice (without any announcements in English, the staff was extremely rude with zero communication, I don't understand how flight attendants can be allowed to fly without being able to speak English when many travellers don't speak Japanese, it's dangerous). With all the delay and last minute chaotic boarding, the flight arrived at 23:50 at Osaka, of course there was no public transportation left so we had to take the taxi to reach our hotel, which is extremely expensive. And of course, the staff refused to give any passenger any compensation. How is this airline allowed to fly? I'm honestly wondering how the plane didn't crash.

To avoid at all costs as you will lose… To avoid at all costs as you will lose a lot flying with them. Those are just thieves. We first had a plane where they cancelled our boarding due to overbooking, thing they hid until the boarding, and then on the next day, the company refused to operate the flight, claiming that the crew was tired. Now they refuse to refund our plane tickets and the hotel room after having ruined our vacations! We won’t let it go and will liaise with the government to claim our due and to ensure those practices cease! Booking Reference: PRIQRH Stephanie Tully, your place is in front of Judge.
