Jetstar is celebrating 15 years of flying in New Zealand by launching a birthday sale, with over 50,000 one-way fares from $29.

It’s the same fare the airline entered the market with in 2009.

Jetstar’s Head of New Zealand, Shelley Musk said the airline is proud to continue putting downward pressure on airfares in New Zealand.

“Since launching domestic flights in New Zealand in 2009, Jetstar has revolutionised air travel for Kiwis, with more than eighteen million people travelling with us for less than $100. “We offered $29 fares when we launched – and 15 years later, our birthday fares remain just as low.

“As we celebrate 15 years of flying in Aotearoa, we remain as passionate as ever about keeping air travel affordable for Kiwis and delivering a reliable service.

“Our reliability is now the best it’s been since COVID and the investments we’ve made in improving our operations have helped us cement our position as New Zealand’s low fares leader.”

The sale ends at 11.59pm on Tuesday 11 June 2024, unless sold out prior.

The 15th Birthday Sale includes fares to 17 destinations across domestic and international routes,
including the following examples:
Domestic
● Auckland to Christchurch from $29^
● Auckland to Wellington from $29^
● Wellington to Queenstown from $38^

International
● Auckland to Sydney from $135^
● Auckland to Gold Coast from $169^
