So tight...
Went to Bali from Syd. The seat so tight can feel each other skin and elbow. Not very comfortable for long flight. The food is ok. Delayed flight. Very friendly staff in the plane. Food is ok bcz i was starving so didnt think too much of the taste.

Dishonesty and theft onboard Jetstar internationsl
I travelled to Auckland using Jetstar with my young son. Upon arrival I realised I had left my duty free onboard. I was told that the cabin crew had located it and to go through security and come back to collect from the baggage desk. I was then told that ‘someone’ had gone back to the plane and claimed it. I am not sure what has happened as Jetstar will not hold their own staff accountable. $300 worth of alcohol and gifts we’re allegedly handed to the wrong person by Jetstar staff. Dishonesty, Poor security and no transparency Jetstar. Shame on you.

Really Terrible Customer service
I recently made a booking for flights from Sydney to Melbourne. When I made the booking my browser autofill changed the name of the second passenger to my name when i updated a phone number. Noticing straight away. I jumped on live chat and they said it would cost $110 to change the name. When I pointed out this was illegal and refused to pay they said they could give me a full refund but not chnage a name. I took the refund and booked tickets on another airline. Great system Jetsar and such great customer service.....

Worst service, always delayed. Don’t do it!!
Two out of two flight delayed, both blamed on weather when everyone knows it’s because they cancel flight and cram the others. Also got charged $60 for being3kg over, so stunned I didn’t event think about taking a couple things out of my suitcase and putting them on or in my pockets. The attitude of their staff disgusting, always attitude. Never fly with them again

Sneaky money making tactic
By careful when you flight with jetstar as they have sneaky fees and charges. I bought a domestic ticket with check in luggage, I didn't end up using it and had carry on and thought a few kilo over is OK since I didn't use my check in and it's faster to walk out.. At the gate they tag all carry on luggage so mine went over and had to pay for carry on "upgrades" which would make the ticket comparable to a normal ticket of Qantas or Virgin. The lady at the gate say "it's in our T&C you should of read it". sure when jestar got caught for underpayi...Read more
ny some cabin crew they should of read the fairwork Awards!!! So instead of being flexible cause I bought check in luggage and didn't use it no you need to pay for upgrades cause your carry on is, different to check in. To work with jetstar the criteria must be you need to be cold blooded cause they got zero empathy to customers. They should change their motto to "all day every day we rort people"Similar opinion?

Terrible airline! Even worse service!
Flight was delayed... delayed... delayed... Then cancelled after 10 hours of waiting with a 2 year old in an airport! The excuses were exactly that - excuses!
Do not book with this airline - absolutely useless!

Worst ever service. Horrible and rude manager on duty on 27/2/2020 at Sydney domestic airport.
Flight from Gold coast to Sydney was one and half hour late and I missed my connection flight to Orange. The service desk manager was horrible and rude blaming me for not taking a connection flight after 3 hours not accepting their mistake of delaying their flight for 90 minutes. Never travel and recommend jetstar for anyone.

Nastiest airline in the world
They charge you unreasonable amount for few kilos extra hand baggage. That's how they run their business by ripping off people. Be mindful to book any other airline with 30 bucks extra rather this nastiest airline.

Good and bad
We have had both good and bad experiences with Jetstar. We have flown with them both domestic and international. The seating is very small and sometimes the staff can we quite short. The last experience was a little difficult - the plane was cancelled on the tarmac. The plane staff were awesome but the service desk staff were very poor.

Poor customer service
Our flight to Hawaii was cancelled after making us wait 6 hours in the airport before they had guts to inform us of what was really going on. They kept making different excuses for the delay. They finally told us at 10.30 pm that our 4.30 pm flight was cancelled due to technical issues. We then had to organise accommodation for the night . They told us we would be reimbursed for the cost and when we went to claim were told we were only entitled to $150. Where can you find a room In Melbourne late Friday night for $150, shocking customer experience . Will never fly with them again !!! Disgraced

Extraordinarily bad
It’s not the $65 ‘excess’ baggage racket for more than 7kg that they run at the gate to claw in max revenue (low business practice but what do you expect), it’s not the massive delays, it’s not even the 20 passengers standing on the tarmac in pelting rain for 10 minutes - it’s the absolute rudeness and surly attitude of the staff. I mean, I get that being a hostie at Jetstar probably isn’t everything you wanted from life, but don’t take it out on the passengers.

Not happy Jan
Flew from Perth to Launceston, had to collect bags in Melbourne and cart them around until we could check in. Coming back from Launceston, arrived in Melbourne, had to collect all bags again, needed a trolley. Had to wait 2 hours downstairs before being able to check that baggage in again for next flight to Perth. I think for the money we paid for these flights for 4 adults return the luggage should be able to be held and not inconvenience everyone that would prefer to walk around the main area, look at shops and have some decent food options. On another note, the $10 toasted sandwiches on the flights were overpriced, hard as a rock and tasted terrible.

Musicians + Chef do not fly JETSTAR
If you are a musician or a chef NEVER FLY JETSTAR! Paid oversize fee for my guitar for both ways $50 @ $25 each way coming back I paid $30 to change my checked luggage flight to 30 kg because of my tools..the fee for oversize luggage became null n void and I had to pay another $25 for my guitar. This is extortion of the finest execution..Pay the extra $20 - $100 for another airline...you can only spend your money once..

Unbelievably bad
At the gate in Hobart airport they are weighing carry on. The flight was not full so obviously this is not about safety. The credit card machine next to the scale said it all. They wanted to charge me $65.00 for being one kilo over between the 2 of us so 500gms over each. Seriously! Finally convinced them that this was unreasonable which was something I guess. Maybe it was the look on my face which clearly indicated they had permanently lost me as a customer. As the flight started boarding we noticed that all the late comers did not get weighed at all. Message here...Turn up late. Complete joke!

Jetstar? Never again!
We traveled back from Melbourne to Auckland where we spent 9 days. Customer service rep (Jackie?) ask us to weight all our luggage at the same time. This is including my wife's small over shoulder lady's bag, my bag with wallet, cellphone, sunglasses etc., reading book, my jumper which I had in hands for our nigh flight (I didn't want to wear it, as it was sunny and hot outside), even snacks and water which were to be consumed while on the plane. Our two carry on bags and a large bag were within the kgs allowed, but we still ended up paying ex...Read more
tra $70 for things which we had in hands??? Even more disappointing is that I over heard Jackie's conversation with her supervisor who commented "It's up to you, you can charge them if you want". Interesting enough, we had the same luggage on the way to Melbourne and were not asked to weight everything, nor to pay additional luggage fee. Finally, while waiting to pay, I looked at other 4-5 customer service representatives and none of them asked any of the travelers to weight all their luggage. Over the last 40 years we traveled around the world with many different flying companies, but never had such a bad experience. It is not about money, more about principles and the way how we were treated. Good luck Jackie and Jetstar, but never again with us on one of your planes!Similar opinion?

Can't complain about customer service: there is none
I was charged twice for a ticket. The first time was via an agent and Jetstar did not acknowledge it. The second time I paid directly. The problem is: I have been trying to sort this out for two months and so far nothing significant has transpired. The chat line is seriously useless: don't even try it. They demand all the detail and then don't read it. When they read it they don't understand it. It's like talking to a pre-schooler. Maybe it is a pre-schooler. Honestly, best to avoid this airline altogether.

Avoid at all costs
I made an error booking a flight. Instead of 20/02/2020 I bought a ticket for 20/03/2020. I called Jetstar immediately and I asked for her to change the dates. Instead of reversing the transaction or making me pay the difference the agent upgraded my ticket. She never explained that my original ticket was non refundable or that she was making me pay twice more by upgrading. I realized from I've have been charged $306 when a ticket should be only $160. I called Jetstar again and after a lengthy conversation and reviewing the recordings it was cl...Read more
ear I was in the right and they agreed to reverse previous transactions and book a new flight for me. By this time the ticket price was $268. So it would only save me less than $40. I said not to bother as it would take too long to receive the refund and $40 was not worth the trouble. All I wanted to do was swap a $160 ticket for another $160 on a different day, not pay $306. Don't ever buy a Jetstar ticket as they will end up costing you money and your sanity.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Injured on flight & ignored
Horrible experience and incompetent staff. On my international flight I was struck and injured by falling luggage. They refused any assistance. They denied seeing the incident and didn't even log it!

Terrible
The live chat is so useless and frustrating. I wonder if you ever try to Put yourself in a customer shoes and help for real. I was on a flight this morning from Queenstown to Christchurch and for the FIRST TIME EVER my laptop case has been weight and I got charged 65 dollars.
Now my question is: I have travelled many times with this company, and never ever my laptop case ( small one) has been object of a charge. This morning the stuff was particularly nervous and decided to make me pay, I waited to see she would do the same with other custome...Read more

Booked my husband for a flight from Melbourne to Adelaide because he had to be to early morning meeting. Every time (5+) we have flown this airline they have been delayed so we hoped that would not happen today for his meeting. It did and now he is arrived 2 hours late and late for meeting...this airline is absolutely unreliable and the cost savings (though they nickle and some you for everything and it adds up) is not worth it....proven to us again why we do not fly with Jetstar

Why on earth can’t you help your customers and if they’re late for just 1 minute for Check-in why can’t you just help!!!! I had a family emergency and on top of that you charge me MORE money to get on a flight the next day! You hide behind your terms and conditions. That amount of money can make our break a person Jetstar. As a company you have no ethical boundaries. Air NZ NEVER would have done that!!!!!
