Australian budget airline Jetstar has launched one of its largest-ever fare promotions to celebrate its 21st anniversary, making air travel more accessible with over 225,000 discounted tickets available across both domestic and international routes.
Travelers can secure fares starting at $33 through Club Jetstar, or $38 for non-members.
According to Sky News, the airline’s latest campaign is designed to give more Australians the chance to explore new destinations at affordable prices.
The sale is being promoted as a milestone event in Jetstar’s operational history, reinforcing the carrier’s ongoing commitment to providing low-cost travel options.
More Than 225,000 Discounted Fares Released
The airline confirmed that the birthday promotion is set to run until Tuesday, May 13, or until all discounted seats are sold. Jetstar Group CEO Stephanie Tully emphasized the scale and intent of the campaign :
Over the past 21 years, we have democratised air travel and enabled Australians to take off more with our low fares – he said.
This sale will be one of our biggest sales in 2025, and we are proud to be offering Aussies the chance to book their next holiday with fares from as low as $38.
Around one in three Jetstar customers travel for less than $100 and we’re committed to keeping fares low so our customers can spend more on their holiday.
