Jetstar increases services between Perth and Bali

December 17th, 2008

Australia’s low fares airline Jetstar has boosted its Perth-Denpasar (Bali) service to four times per week following its successful launch in October.

From today, Jetstar will fly between Perth and Denpasar (Bali) each Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, with fares from as low as $259 one-way (JetSaver Light) fare at Jetstar.com.

Jetstar Chief Executive Officer Bruce Buchanan said Western Australians had embraced its new A320 services to the popular holiday destination, taking advantage of the airline’s every day low fares since the commencement of services two months ago.
“This additional Perth-Bali service reinforces Jetstar’s position as the largest Australian airline serving Bali with our flights growing to 17 weekly return services via multiple capital city points,” Mr Buchanan said

“Since we announced our decision to operate on the Perth-Denpasar (Bali) route earlier this year, Jetstar has offered fares from as low as $179 one-way,” Mr Buchanan said.

“Visitation trends continue to show Bali as a high demand destination, experiencing strong double digit growth in Australian visitor numbers this year. Jetstar’s expanding services to Bali has the airline well placed to serve growing traveller demand.”

Jetstar’s additional weekly international service expands its overall Perth operations, serving the existing markets of Melbourne (14 times weekly), Singapore (daily), Bali (4 times weekly) and Jakarta (3 times weekly).

The value based carrier’s operations from Perth will be further bolstered with the commencement of new daily direct flights to Adelaide from 2 February 2009 and three times weekly to Cairns from 6 February 2009.

Jetstar’s international inflight service to Bali includes choice of portable video on demand units for hire offering latest movie releases, TV programs, music videos and audio tracks and a range of hot food, snacks and beverages including alcoholic drinks available for purchase.

Passengers can also choose an Extra Leg Room option upgrade when available when booking JetSaver Light and JetSaver fares for $60 AUD on international services, offering 20 per cent more seat pitch compared to a regular economy seat. Visit Jetstar.com for more details.

Jetstar also recently launched a Jetstar Price Beat Guarantee. If a passenger finds a lower fare with another carrier at a comparable date and time, Jetstar will beat the fare by 10 per cent. Visit Jetstar.com.

The airline also serves Bali from Australia via Brisbane/Darwin (7 times weekly), Sydney (4 times weekly) and Melbourne (twice weekly).
