Jetstar Launches Hangzhou Flights with Promotion

Jetstar has launched flights between Singapore and Hangzhou, extending the carrier’s growing China footprint to a network of seven Greater China destinations, including four to mainland China.

The four times weekly service will be operated by Jetstar Asia’s growing fleet of Airbus A320 aircraft.

Jetstar is celebrating the launch of Singapore-Hangzhou services, with an all-inclusive one-way JetSaver Light# sale fare of Sin$118. The sale is available until 23.59pm 25 March 2011 unless seats sell out prior.

This sale is valid for travel for various travel dates from 1 October 2011 till 15 November 2011. Terms and conditions apply.

Jetstar’s all day, every day low fares from Singapore to Hangzhou start from Sin$198, all-inclusive, one-way.

Hangzhou, a scenic city in the historical Zhejiang province, is recognised as one of the most desirable tourism spots in China, attracting some 2.7 million international visitors in 2010 and 45 million domestic tourists.

 “We have long set our sights on Hangzhou, guided by the potential demand from both Singapore and Chinese travellers. Now travellers can have a more affordable alternative, not just to Hangzhou, but also to nearby Shanghai,” said Jetstar Asia CEO, Ms Chong Phit Lian. “Jetstar’s strategy for China has consistently been to create new direct-from-Singapore flights to Chinese cities that have high tourism potential. Examples include Guilin, Shantou and, now, Hangzhou. There’s no doubt our low fares will attract new and repeat travellers not only from Singapore but from other parts of the Jetstar network across the Asia Pacific to visit these Chinese cities.”

For passengers making the connection from Hangzhou to Shanghai city centre, one-way bus tickets can be purchased on arrival at the Hangzhou International Airport for just Sin$20.
