Closure of Jetstar Asia

Jetstar Asia, the Group’s Singapore-based low-cost subsidiary, has faced growing challenges in recent years and the decision has been made, together with majority shareholder Westbrook Investments, to close the airline.

Despite delivering exceptional customer service and operational reliability; Jetstar Asia has been impacted by rising supplier costs, high airport fees, and intensified competition in the region. This has fundamentally challenged the low-cost airline’s ability to deliver returns comparable to the stronger performing core markets in the Group.

The airline is expected to post a $35 million underlying EBIT loss this financial year, prior to the closure decision.

Jetstar Asia will continue to operate flights for the next seven weeks on a progressively reduced schedule, before its final day of operation on 31 July 2025.

Will SG gomen finally allow AirAsia to set up airline there

jetstar really cannot...i saw a lot of people complain after batik air
lots of delays and cancellation

That day take Jetstar to board cruise, luckily no delay.

Scoot: Just as planned.

Jetstar better than scoot and airasia

I thought Jetstar is Aussie?

sometime. its the ATC sabotagggge the airspace. Especially supporting home grown airlines. Like you see why Airasia dare not be on ground with scoot.

low cost cannot survive in sngapore.

No, Singapore Changi Airport is not known for having low taxes. In fact, Changi Airport's fees and charges are among the highest in the world, and are increasing. The fees include a service and security fee, which passengers pay as part of their airfare. Additionally, passengers are subject to a passenger departure tax, which is also typically included in the cost of the ticket.

High fees:
Changi Airport's service and security fee is currently S$46.40, but it will be increasing over the next few years, reaching S$58.40 by April 2030.

don't think it's ATC if it's happening everywhere
even in their home country of AUS

u can go google search "jetstar delay tiktok"...plenty of video

so far scoot and airasia still reliable because they have enough plane...so when they say delay, it really means slight delay

Jetstar Airways - Aussie
Jetstar Asia - SG
Jetstar Pacific (now absorbed by Vietnam Airlines) - Vietnam
Jetstar Japan - Japan

Qantas/Jetstar used to have an associate airline in Vietnam too - Jetstar Pacific. But it was hammered by the Bikini Airlines, and has been sold to Vietnam Airlines.

I guess Qantas really sucks when it comes to overseas venture.

Wah scoot and tiger air slso sia subsidary.

bullshit.

they; airasia delay longer than some, even complained to CAAM, Mavcom all just brush under table.

you dont go check airasia delay tiktok?

it is not sucks. their OPEX is high and their operations much different from Asia market.
they`re much better operate direct europe / usa market. but also faced competition from qatar, emirates and etihad.

tiger air AU sold to virgin airlines. Kesian.

All cannot compete with AA ?

i fly airasia bro
if got massive delay, i also angry

u want massive delay, try jetstar and batik air...minimum delay is 8-12 hours, basically no difference than cancellation
but they call it delay

why?
1. they don't have enough planes to compensate
2. their frequency is really really bad...literally 1-2 flights per day only

Not your bro.

Haha, i nailed it that youre airasia buttlicker.

Then you tell the low cost budget airlines to better close shop.

Business is business.

they may be delay, cancellation many factor. But i`m just compare the flown route customer service between all,

airasia is the most trash ever despite been covering all route well.

Changi Airport tax expensive, thats why got nice thing there.

silk air
tiger airways

...

oh no, no more jetstar in Penang
