Jetstar Asia Baggage Allowance
OsakaAirport.com » Jetstar Asia » Baggage Allowance
Jetstar Asia baggage allowance depends on your selected fare and bundle. Many of Jetstar's popular fares don’t include checked baggage, so it's a good idea to add it during booking to get the best price.
Passengers traveling with Jetstar Asia are welcome to bring:
Carry-on Baggage
Jetstar’s carry-on baggage allowance depends on the fare you choose. For Starter fares, you’re allowed 2 items with a total weight of 7kg.
Main item: Must fit in the overhead locker (max size: 56cm x 36cm x 23cm).
Small item: Examples include a handbag, laptop bag, or small backpack, which must fit under the seat.
Need More Allowance?
If 7kg isn’t enough, you can increase your allowance to 14kg, which lets you bring:
1 main item (up to 10kg)
1 small item
To get 14kg, you can either add extra carry-on baggage when booking your flight or choose a fare that includes a higher allowance.
Avoid Extra Fees
If your carry-on exceeds the weight or size limits, you may face excess baggage fees or be asked to check in your bag. To save money, it’s a good idea to add any extra baggage before your flight.
Restricted Items
Be aware that items like spare lithium batteries must be carried in your carry-on. Also, make sure to check Jetstar's rules for dangerous goods, prohibited items, and liquid restrictions, especially when flying internationally.
Checked Baggage Allowance
Jetstar’s checked baggage allowance depends on the fare or bundle you've purchased. If checked baggage is not included, you can purchase it separately. Here’s a breakdown of what to expect.
Checked Baggage Allowance by Fare Type
| Fare Type | Included Baggage | Additional Baggage Options |
|---|---|---|
| Starter Fare | No checked baggage included | 15kg*, 20kg, 25kg, 30kg, 35kg, or 40kg |
| Starter Plus Bundle | 20kg checked baggage | Up to 20kg extra |
| Flex Bundle | No checked baggage included | 15kg*, 20kg, 25kg, 30kg, 35kg, or 40kg |
| Flex Plus Bundle | 20kg checked baggage | Up to 20kg extra |

Note: *15kg checked baggage is only available on domestic Jetstar Airways (JQ) and Jetstar Japan (GK) flights. Not available on international or connecting flights.
Size and Weight Restrictions for Checked Baggage
Maximum Weight: No single bag can weigh more than 32kg. If your allowance is 35kg or 40kg, you need to split it into multiple bags, each under 32kg.
Oversized Items: Items longer than 1 metre (including handles and wheels) are considered oversized. Fees may apply, except for mobility aids or infant items.
Baggage Fees at the Airport
If you haven’t added checked baggage to your booking, you'll face airport charges. It's cheaper to add baggage when booking rather than paying higher fees at the airport.
Tips to Save on Baggage Fees
Book Early: The most affordable way to add baggage is when you book your flight. You can also add baggage later via Manage Booking, but it’ll cost more.
Plan Your Baggage: Jetstar allows a combined weight of up to 40kg per person for checked baggage. You can bring multiple bags as long as the total weight doesn’t exceed your limit.
Special Baggage Allowances
Assistive Devices: Free for mobility aids or medical equipment.
Infant Travel: Free pram, portable cot, car seat, and high chair if traveling with an infant.
Extra Baggage
If you have more baggage weight and/or pieces than your allowance, additional
charges will be applied.
You can purchase your extra bag allowance in advance enjoy a great discount.
Charges depend on your destination.
