Checked baggage
Purchase only what you need, up to 40kg
Jetstar Starter fares include a 7kg carry-on baggage allowance. If you think you’ll need more, you can add 7kg to your carry-on baggage allowance or add as much checked baggage allowance as you need, up to 40kg.
How and when to add checked baggage
You can add checked baggage when you book, after you book or at the airport. It’s cheapest when you book, but if you change your mind, you can add it in Manage booking for a slightly higher price. Adding baggage at the airport is the most expensive option.
How much does checked baggage cost?
Checked baggage prices vary by route. Prices are cheapest when you purchase a checked baggage allowance online, and most expensive at the airport. We recommend you add it to your booking before arriving at the airport.
How much? How heavy? How big?
Each passenger can buy up to 40kg of checked baggage. No individual item can weigh more than 32kg. Items longer than one metre in any direction are considered oversized, and a handling fee applies on top of the weight allowance.
Oversized baggage
Travelling with large items? Handling fees apply to items longer than one metre in any direction. This handling fee applies on top of your purchased baggage weight. Exclusions apply.
