Jetstar

Jetstar is a low-cost airline, so food and drinks aren’t included in the basic Starter fare: you buy them from the onboard menu, with snacks from $5 and light meals and hot meals at $15. Bundles such as Starter Plus and Flex Plus include food and drink, and Business includes meals and drinks. On board, Jetstar only accepts cards, not cash. Here’s the full 2026 menu with prices.

Menu Prices

Light meals include a bacon and egg muffin, cheese and ham or cheese and tomato relish toasties on sourdough, Vili’s steak pie and sausage roll duo, a pumpkin and feta quiche with spinach and ricotta roll, a chicken Caesar wrap and homestyle sandwiches. For gluten-free and vegan travellers, the sweet corn and zucchini bites are the hot option, and snacks such as Popcorners, vege chips and The Nutty Traveller are gluten-free too. International hot meals are sold on selected international flights, but not on New Zealand or Pacific Island flights.

Our Jetstar Review

On my Jetstar flight from Melbourne to Singapore in November 2025, I booked a Starter Plus fare, which included one hot meal and a free hot drink. I pre-ordered the vegetable teriyaki noodles, which arrived hot with a decent sauce and mushrooms and capsicum that weren’t mushy. For the second service I pre-ordered a ham and cheese toastie, crisp and piping hot, which also came with a free hot drink, plus a moist lemon tea cake. The crew ran free water rounds through the cabin and handed out free headphones. My biggest tip is to pre-order: it guarantees your meal, and pre-ordered meals came with a hot drink built in, which made them better value than buying on board. And if you move seats, tell the crew, because meal orders are tied to your original seat.

What Your Jetstar Bundle Includes

Jetstar Business Class

Jetstar’s Business Class, on its Boeing 787 international flights, includes a meal and drinks. A sample lunch or dinner menu from Australia starts with a salad of roasted pumpkin, pepitas and labneh, then a choice of slow-braised lamb shank with mash, shiitake-glazed salmon with Koshihikari rice, or spinach and ricotta ravioli with roast pumpkin, followed by warm sourdough and an orange and almond cake. The bar includes beers such as Hahn Super Dry and Stone & Wood Pacific Ale, Tread Softly Prosecco, spirits, Baileys and a selection of Australian and New Zealand wines.

Gluten Free & Vegan Options

Note: The sweet corn and zucchini bites are the only hot option that’s both gluten-free and vegan, at $15. Jetstar doesn’t offer special meals such as halal or kosher, and all products may contain traces of nuts, dairy and gluten, so if you have a serious allergy, bring your own food.
