JetSaver Light and JetSaver passengers can purchase more space to stretch their legs by requesting an Extra Leg Room* seat upgrade for AUD30 on any one-way domestic flight, and $60 on any one-way international flight#. JetFlex passengers continue to have access to selected seats, some with extra leg room, inclusive in their fare.
For passengers travelling on Jetstar’s A320/ A321 aircraft on domestic and short haul international services, an Extra Leg Room* seat has a seat pitch of 38 inches, offering 20% more seat pitch compared to a regular economy seat.
For passengers travelling on Jetstar’s A330 aircraft on international long haul flights, Extra Leg Room* seats have a seat pitch of 45 inches, offering 35% more seat pitch compared to a regular economy seat.
Group General Manager Commercial Bruce Buchanan said the introduction of Extra Leg Room* seating was an extension of Jetstar’s product choice offering, providing passengers with the opportunity to choose what they value most when flying.
Mr Buchanan said, “Earlier this year, we successfully launched our JetSaver Light fare, which gave passengers the choice to choose a lower fare by traveling without check-in baggage. About 20 per cent of our passengers now choose to fly on JetSaver Light.”
“We believe our Extra Leg Room upgrade promises similar popularity amongst our passengers who are seeking choice, low fares and an enjoyable travel experience.
