Jetstar Asia has no flights left to check a bag on. The Singapore based carrier, code 3K, stopped flying on July 31, 2025. There are no current Jetstar Asia baggage rules to publish, because there is no current Jetstar Asia flight.
What happened to Jetstar Asia
Qantas Group announced in June 2025 that Jetstar Asia would shut down by the end of July. The stated reasons were rising supplier costs and high airport fees at Changi. Competition from other low cost carriers in the region had also intensified.
The airline was on track to post a loss of around 35 million Australian dollars for the year. More than 500 staff in Singapore lost their jobs when the last flight landed.
Jetstar Asia had flown under its own Singapore air operator certificate since 2004. That certificate is gone, and so are the routes tied to it.
What the airline’s own site shows now
The jetstar.com Singapore pages that once belonged to Jetstar Asia are still online. They now sit under Jetstar Airways Pty Ltd, the Australian entity, not the Singapore one.
The footer no longer lists Jetstar Asia as a legal entity at all. Only Jetstar Airways and Jetstar Japan appear there now.
Routes shown on the Singapore pages today, like Singapore to Melbourne, Perth, and Bali, are flown by Jetstar Airways aircraft from Australia. They are not Jetstar Asia flights. Old Jetstar Asia baggage rules never applied to those routes in the first place.
What happened to existing bookings
Passengers with a canceled flight were offered a full refund. Qantas said it would try to rebook affected travelers on other carriers where a seat existed.
Anyone booked from July 31 onward could request a refund through the Manage Booking page. Travel voucher balances were converted to cash refunds in August 2025.
If you still hold an old booking reference and have not heard back, that refund window has likely closed. Contact your card issuer or travel insurer instead.
What travelers in forums were asking
Community threads from mid 2025 kept circling two questions. Would a booked Jetstar Asia flight actually operate, and was an old voucher still worth anything.
Both questions came from people the airline had not yet contacted directly. Some travelers got a rebooking email within days.
Others waited weeks and had to chase a refund themselves through Manage Booking. If your own booking predates July 2025 and nothing has moved, do not sit on an email that may never arrive.
Where to fly Singapore routes now
Scoot covers most of the short regional hops Jetstar Asia used to fly out of Singapore. For the wider Jetstar network, the main Jetstar Airways baggage page has current, verified carry-on and checked bag figures for flights actually operating today.
Travelers connecting through Japan should use the separate Jetstar Japan baggage page. That is a distinct company with its own limits. None of these three brands share one policy, so match the page to your actual ticket.
Checking your own booking
Look at the carrier code on your e-ticket, not the marketing name a travel site used. The code 3K means Jetstar Asia, and it should not appear on any flight dated after July 31, 2025. Any Jetstar Asia baggage rules quoted next to that code today are leftover copy, not a live policy.
Run your bag through our carry on size checker once you confirm which airline actually operates your route. Our airline policy tracker flags exactly this kind of status change too.
The bottom line
There are no Jetstar Asia baggage rules left to quote, because Jetstar Asia stopped flying on July 31, 2025. Anyone searching for one should book with Scoot or Jetstar Airways and use that carrier’s own current figures instead.
