From February 2 2027, passengers on Jetstar will only be able to bring one small bag that fits under the seat for free. Anyone wanting to store a bag in the overhead locker will need to pay an additional fee, with prices varying by route.
The airline says the change will provide “more choice” while helping keep base fares low. It also reduces the need to weigh as many carry-on bags at the gate and improve boarding efficiency. Passengers who pay for the overhead baggage option will receive priority boarding.
