Jetstar Asia takes over Valuair flights

Jetstar Asia will take over operations of Valuair flights between Singapore and its four ports in Indonesia from 26 October following the Indonesian government’s lifting of foreign low cost carriers (LCCs) operating restrictions.

Jetstar Asia will continue operating up to 52 return services between Singapore and Indonesia and there are no changes to the current schedule.

The only change for travellers will be that flights operated with a Valuair VF flight code will now be operated with a Jetstar Asia 3K code.

“It’s business as usual for our flights between Singapore and Indonesia,” Jetstar Asia CEO Barathan Pasupathi said.

“Operating under the one brand with one airline code, will further streamline and simplify customer communications particularly for our growing number of Indonesia passengers travelling with us through Singapore to one of the other 18 Jetstar Asia destinations.”

Jetstar Asia currently has a fleet of 18 180-seat Airbus A320 aircraft and flies from Singapore to Jakarta, Medan,Surabaya and Denpasar.
