The Bali flight just got a lot more expensive

16 September 2026

Booked my Jetstar flight to Bali feeling very pleased with myself, then found the fine print. Meals not included. Apparently that little orange plane runs on hopes, dreams and your credit card. So now I’m doing the maths on whether a sad tray of nuggets at 30,000 feet is worth twelve dollars. It is not, and I might buy it anyway. Lesson learned, this year.
