[Club] Return Ticket Free with Purchase of Flight from Australia to Japan/South Korea (Conditions Apply) @ Jetstar

Jetstar just dropped a pretty wild deal. If you book a one-way flight from Australia to Japan or South Korea, the return flight is free. You’re basically paying for the outbound and getting the trip home thrown in.

This covers routes from Aussie cities like Sydney, Brisbane and Cairns into places like Tokyo, Osaka and Seoul. It’s on their Starter fares so you don’t get checked baggage, but even with that it’s insanely cheap for a return to North Asia.

Important for NZ people, this deal is from Australia, not New Zealand. You’ll need to get yourself to Australia first, but with how cheap trans-Tasman flights are, it can still work out way cheaper than booking from NZ.

If you can line up a cheap way to Australia, this is one of the cheapest ways you’ll get to Japan or Korea and back. These usually don’t last long once people start booking, so worth checking sooner rather than later.
