$29 fares in neverending Jetstar birthday sale 🛫

Move over return for free sales. The real bargain is in the second-coming of the 2023 Jetstar birthday sale.

So, we think Jetstar pranked us a bit with its recent birthday sale. We didn’t get the $19 flights we were hoping for. Instead, it launched what appeared to be a huge return for free sale and, to be frank, its international fares actually were pretty good! But… the domestic deals left us a bit disappointed.

But then it came back. Not with its usual Friday Fare Frenzy, but ANOTHER birthday sale! This time, flights are starting at just $29 each way (compared to the $38.50 they worked out to be in the other sale).

Where can I travel from?

When are these Jetstar birthday sale flights available?

Departure dates vary slightly depending on where you’re travelling from, but most of them are available from July to December. There are blackout dates from late-September to mid-October over the school holidays.

While you may be travelling later in the year, you don’t have all that long to book. This sale ends at 11:59pm on 9 May, 2023.

What airline is this flight deal with?

Jetstar.

What’s included in the price?

At these prices, you’ll just get a seat on the plane and a carry-on bag up to 7kg. If you want to choose that seat, bring a checked bag or get a meal on the flight you’ll be able to pay a bit more for that.

Can I get any frequent flyer points?

Not for these prices, but if you upgrade to the “Plus” fare, you can collect Qantas Frequent Flyer points.

If you do want extras like the checked bag and meal, it may be worth the upgrade.
