Avoid 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!

Bunch of sharks Business trip to Wellington from Christchurch, flew AIR NZ up to wellington which was fantastic. Went to leave wellington and yes the bag limit is 7kgs but my bag was 9kg and got pinged with a $75 excess baggage fee. Bunh of sharks, do not fly Jetstar. Air NZ is not that much more and the experience is 100% better. They will be weighing the passengers next!! Never again jetstar

Praise for Jetstar Once again i had the most amazing flight JQ117 departing 8.55am Denpasar to Perth on 22 April 2024.The captain and first officer introduced themselves and Mark and his cabin crew were all amazing Mark when speaking to any passenger addressed us by our christian name he had a wonderful memory and absolutely nothing was any trouble I travel with oxygen and need a wheelchair and the crew made sure i was ok and ensured a wheelchair was available Having always flown Garuda i was very hesitant about flying with Jetstar i had read so many bad reviews but the 5 times (plus return) trips i have now done with them i have nothing but the highest praise and even if Garuda started flying from Perth again i wouldnt use them Jetstar have won me over

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.
