[TD="bgcolor: #FFFFFF, align: left"]Flights to selected Jetstar destinations here and overseas are on sale!
And when we say free, we mean FREE! For every passenger who books a specially marked sale Starter fare^, you will receive another Starter fare for free! The friend for free offer is for an additional Starter fare only (checked baggage not included). Checked baggage and extras can be purchased, additional fees apply per passenger.
To take up this offer, you must include all travelling passengers (including the free passenger) in the one booking for travel on the same flight. A minimum of 2 and maximum of 8 passengers per booking applies. You can make bookings which include an odd number of passengers, however the last passenger will not receive a free fare.
So grab a friend, a family member, or just anyone you can find and help us celebrate our 8th birthday!

I had no issues with the 2-for-1 sale last year.

The issues popped up when trying to get the Itinerary sent.
 
Same as you guys link does not work and now web page down, got through on the phone to book November Syd or Melbourne - Hnl but they said sale was for February only...still cannot get in, they drive me crazy
 
Finally got in.

I priced a SYD-HNL for 2, $1200 or $1300 or so if I wanted points ;) Chose neither as travel dates are Feb-March 2013.
 
The only place I got to look at before the web site locked up was MEL-AKL-MEL and I have just booked cheaper flights on Virgin :!:
 
was fine for me until the payment page, all of a sudden the "free" passenger was back to the normal price.
 
Mel-HBA booked for October no problems except sale seats had sold out before I got to payment page, changed times then all OK.
 
I booked 4 people MEL-DPS-MEL for October, fully paid and received email itinerary (which usually seems to take 24hrs so this was unusually quick), with luggage ended up at $440 return pp which is pretty good. Unfortunately still need to buy one ticket as there are 5 of us travelling, unless someone on here is heading that way!?

Out of interest, what happens if the second person doesn't travel? Ie. I need to book this one extra ticket but if I book it with the second person free for a free seat and then they don't travel, can I do that so I have more space?

I also find it annoying on the booking engine that you can't separate which passengers have plus bundles attached to their ticket. Everything else can be broken down per passenger, why not this.
 
To add to this, interestingly the route MEL-DPS wasn't even listed, but when I did a normal search it came up with the "Friend flies free" fares which were the normal quoted fares. It all priced correctly with 2 people free. Jetstar's IT systems must be useless!
 
I am still waiting for my original email - see how long that takes them (not that I am going to book anything but my email would be nice!!!)
 
I haven't been able to find anything in the T's & C's not allowing travel if one person doesn't travel so might just buy and extra seat to have the empty one next to me!

so no plus bundle in J options then?

Those are your options. Been that way since they relaunched with the bundle system.

The Plus bundle gives a discounted earn rate while the Max bundle gives a full earn rate, which wouldn't work with business class having only one earn rate.

Sorry. I meant a part of the 2 for 1 sale
 
I jumped on the site at ~6pm and had no delays at all? Booked 2 return trips, plenty of availability to several other places which I had to forego due to holiday restrictions.
 
email came at 1.15am - I am debating still - with the USA/Canada trip coming up not sure of doing something domestically
