Jetstar business class menu

[Mattg]

This is the business class menu on today’s Jetstar flight from MEL to SIN:



I thought it looked familiar - i.e. identical - to the menu I had last year on SYD-ICN. So I asked the flight attendant and she said it hasn’t changed in the 5 years she has worked for Jetstar.

Is it perhaps time for JQ to update the menu, or are there so few frequent JQ J flyers that it just doesn’t really matter?

Errr… I was gonna say the same thing… it looked verrrryyy similar to a JQi meal i had to bangkok pre covid!! The only difference to bangkok was they had an additional starter that wasn’t vegetarian… sorry…pant based.

For anyone interested, this is the ravioli from that menu:



The second (lighter) meal options also haven’t changed in years. There’s a choice of a vegetable pie or quesadilla. This is the pie:



I didn’t mind the drinks list - the alcoholic ginger beer is a bit of a novelty.

We flew HNL-MEL in 2022 and it was gnocchi with pumpkin and spinach

How can they not change the menu after so long? That's so povo! At least change it every 6 months or so. Gosh!

If it works it works.
One of my local cafes I reckon hasn't changed its menu in 10 yrs, well other than the prices.

No celebrity chefs who needs to justify themselves with constant changes.

But I suspect you are right that there are less regular travellers in JQ J.

This is why I choose to fly Emirates or Singapore Airlines!

It’s not my first choice, but JQ J was not much more expensive than QF Y on the MEL-SIN route on the date I booked. The flight was fine, ran on time, and got me to where I was going safely.

Many people value the service Jetstar provides, and those who don’t are obviously free to choose other airlines. I’m not sure why you felt the need to post this comment.

Stop with the flight shaming. it's unbecoming.

What I'll give JQ in its defence is that any time I've flown in their J Class, the top ups have been pretty forthcoming as and when (with the exception of one flight, but I'm pretty sure that flight attendant didn't like anyone, so didn't take it personally), and it's a nice touch having proper ginger beer on the flights.

And, to be fair, the lamb shanks on every occasion I've had them were falling apart off the bone - so in that respect, knocks a lot of Qantas J meals I've eaten out of the water.

Exactly this. Jetstar is a low-cost airline, and they make no claims to be anything more than that.

By having a reliable menu that is available year-round, they avoid the additional costs associated with new menus and the administrative workload that comes with it, not to mention the moaning and groaning from regular flyers that they 'got rid' of favourite menu items.

I guess that's true. I do remember the lamb shank being rather good. Luckily for me, I don't fly JQi particularly often. Once a year, if that?
