Episode Details

Jetstar’s about to shake up Aussie flying—starting Feb 27, passengers will pay $25 to stash carry-ons in overhead bins. The airline says it’s all about smoother boarding, ditching gate chaos and offering a free under-seat bag instead. While similar models exist overseas, this is the first for Australian carriers. Weight limits are rising too—10kg for overhead, no more gate weigh-ins. Critics warn travelers may be blindsided, especially since Jetstar’s base fares already sit higher than global rivals due to Australia’s unique market. Pack smarter—or pay up.
