Jetstar 787 MEL - AKL

[themanfromoz]

Am taking Jetstar 787 MEL - AKL soon(ish) and did one of the upgrades for $30 for seat 1C.

Is this really treated as J class or just Y.

So do I book meals in advance?
Take my own noise-reduction headphones (normally take these on any flights >2 hours)

Jetstar's website is very unclear on how these flights are handled.

Definately Y but with a JQ J seat! Great value! ABT covered this some time ago.

I'm pretty sure it will be treated as Y. All you paid for was a larger seat and legroom. Totally worth the $30 though, and I think the headphones are provided with those seats.

Yep you get the big chunky headphones.

Well done, for an extra $30

Thanks.
How far in advance are you supposed to book 'meals'?

At any time. You can even buy on board (with CC only on my latest JQi flights). But they say it's cheaper to pre-order.

Well my flight is next week. Still can't see in my booking where to pre-book meals.
Guess that is not available on trans-tasman.
