Perth: direct flights to Singapore, Bangkok and Phuket are coming
Jetstar to launch direct Perth flights to Singapore, Phuket, and Bangkok, expanding affordable travel options!In a move heralded as a significant expansion of its network, Jetstar has unveiled ambitious plans to broaden its horizons from Perth in 2024. This expansion includes the launch of new direct flights to three coveted Southeast Asian destinations: Singapore, Phuket, and Bangkok. These routes promise West Australians a wider range of travel choices at affordable prices, meeting the growing appetite for international leisure travel.
In a strategic initiative to bolster its presence in Western Australia, Jetstar is establishing a new Perth pilot base, set to house at least 60 pilots, and will station four aircraft in the state capital. This includes the cutting-edge Airbus A321neo LR, a testament to Jetstar’s commitment to modernising its fleet. This base is more than a logistical step; it’s a foundation for the airline to strengthen and extend its domestic and international routes from the west.
The drive to introduce these additional Southeast Asian routes is underpinned by a robust demand from West Australians for low-cost international travel. This is evidenced by the impressive figure of over 400,000 customers flying on Jetstar flights from Perth to Bali in the past year alone.
