Overview

Jetstar operates under the IATA code JQ and ICAO code JST, with Australian-registered (VH) aircraft. It is listed as an active airline, with scheduled services recorded in 2026 by Plane Finder. Founding date, ownership, headquarters and alliance details could not be confirmed from the sources available for this profile, so they are not stated here.

Network and hubs

Plane Finder lists 42 destinations for Jetstar. Its flight listings include international services such as Perth to Bangkok (departure listed for 6 July 2026). Hubs and the full route map should be checked on the airline's official website before booking.

Fleet

According to Plane Finder (2026), Jetstar has 99 aircraft:

  • Airbus A320: 52
  • Airbus A321neo: 25
  • Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner: 11
  • Airbus A321: 6
  • Airbus A320neo: 5

These counts come from a third-party tracking site and may differ from the airline's own figures. The mix of narrow-body Airbus aircraft and Boeing 787-8 Dreamliners shows that Jetstar flies both short-haul and long-haul routes.

On board

Details of cabins, seat pitch, meals, entertainment and Wi-Fi were not verified for this profile. Travellers should check the fare and cabin information on the Jetstar website for the specific aircraft type and route, as these can differ between the narrow-body Airbus fleet and the 787-8.

Good to know

  • Baggage allowances, change fees and lounge access were not confirmed from official pages for this profile. Check the baggage and fees pages on the Jetstar website before travelling, since allowances often vary by fare type and route.
  • No on-time performance figure has been included because no published figure with a source and period was found.
  • Fleet figures are as listed by Plane Finder in 2026 and may change.
