Bufpuf Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 i am taking Jet star asia to bkk from sg end of this month so far the comments are okie it's abit cramp...but given that it's only an 1hr+ flight and the cheap fare..i don't think it's really abit problem to me one of the not so good comment i heard was that the return flight might be delayed..so best is to call the airport before u leave for the airport.. oh ya..food is not provided...u haf to buy on board but the food i heard was excellent, although slightly expensive....no food allowed on board but i think the stewardess doesn't mind..some people bring burgers, sandwich on board..

Levent Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 iit's abit cramp...but given that it's only an 1hr+ flight and the cheap fare..i don't think it's really abit problem to me Jetstar flies the Airbus A320, not the Concorde. Make that 2 hours... Will fly with them in May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiu-Jitsu Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Take a look at www.tigerairways.com. Even cheaper in some cases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaising Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Tiger airways having special discount 70% off for those booking with Visa credit card, prices slightly lower compare to Jetstar. Offer only for month of March. Note: Remember to check with low cost airlines about departure terminal in singapore, according to info the singapore new low cost terminal will open very soon.

Food and drinks for sale on board so no problem. Bit of a rush at boarding as no seat allocation, but hang back its no big deal. Often late, sometimes an hour late, so be careful about timing. I use them couple of times a month. Book ahead to get cheapest deals, fare goes up as plane fills up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AsiaWolfie Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 JetStarAsia are BY FAR the best no-frills-airline in Asia.... very new A 320, 20 Kg luggage allowance, assigned seating...... and the configuration is okay even for taller people...... the only thing is, Tiger and AirAsia are cheaper in 90% of the cases.... usually I fly Airasia or Tiger to SG, and then return (with much more luggage from my shopping orgies) with JetStar.... and no stampede when the boarding gate opens....

GoodHeart Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 I just flew them last week and was very impressed. Seat assignments both ways, great leg room, on time, cordial/competent staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bufpuf Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 jetstar has seat allocation i think it's tigerway w/o..i heard that u have to rush in and choose yr own seats fly non peak hrs..will be cheaper.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nonthaburial Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 I recently flew my wife to BKK with Jet Star, the comments received were very good although I have heard they are very strict on luggage weights etc. For the record, as we have friends in Singapore, my wife flew MNL - Spore - Bkk return for 2,000 Baht cheaper than a direct flight MNL - BKK using the usual monopoly !!!!!
