AUAvoid this airline Our Perth to Brisbane 23:10 flight delayed till 00:40, gate changed TWICE! On boarding at 01:10 we were ejected due to downsized aircraft which we were told the lie "because it had no row 30!!". Ended up waiting 2 hrs at service desk long queue as a Sydney flight had been cancelled as well! Staff while polite had clearly been instructed to do everything possible in the interest of airline and not customers were unwilling and unhelpful. Our 4 day trip will now be only 3 (we won't meet up with all the people we needed to as a result) but we are still paying for 4 nights accommodation in Brisbane! It was a real struggle to get them to arrange a hotel which we were later told we had to check out from at 11:00 (we only got there at 03:00). Next flight is a full 24 hours later! Compensation, help and customer service is virtually absent and extremely poor! Update it’s now almost 24 hours later and we are waiting for our new flight which of course is delayed! It seems in Aus airlines are free from government regulation and so operate a rip off the customer policy and even have their own consortium to ensure that almost nobody will ever receive compensation!

JPHappy 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.

GBMade us pay $75 for our hand luggage… Made us pay $75 for our hand luggage being 1kg over. Ridiculous service that was also 2 hours delayed. Don’t fly with them, not worth it

AUCabin baggage failure I had the worst experience flying experience last year. I had paid for extra cabin baggage but was allowed to take just one bag. Ground staff were unhelpful. They almost made me miss my flight. Customer Service had no understanding of the issue when I logged an online complaint. They kept coming back to me with the same, irrelevant response.

NZexcessive time taken for receive results of a flight search I tried to get details on a flight from Auckland to Tokyo, Four minutes later i am still waiting for the details to appear. A small piece of advice Jetstar: if you want people to fly with you and bring in more business then you need to get your act together and produce the flight details almost instantly. the time taken seems to be the norm.....really?
