Jetstar to charge A$25–A$52 per flight for overhead-locker use

Jetstar announced on 5 August 2026 that passengers will pay A$25 to A$52 per flight to place carry-on bags in overhead lockers. Non-paying passengers will be limited to a small under-seat bag. The policy is expected to take effect next year. The fee varies by route, making Jetstar the latest low-cost carrier to unbundle overhead-bin access from its base fare.
