Jetstar Airways JQ253 : Flying from Auckland to Wellington

5th February 2022
Hello and welcome back. Long time, no see! A few friends of mine decided to go on a small trip to Wellington and I was happy to tag along. Initially, there were meant to be six of us, but in the end, half were not able to make the trip and unfortunately had to forfeit their tickets. We flew to Wellington aboard Jetstar on their 8 years old Airbus A320-200, VH-VFN.
Once the three of us made it to the Domestic Terminal of Auckland Airport, we promptly checked in, got our boarding passes and had our bags weighed to see if it exceeds the maximum 7kg limit. But luckily, I bought an additional 7kg to avoid any unnecessary hassle so it was fine. As our flight was one of the first to depart, the terminal was pretty quiet so we got through the security screening quickly and relaxed for a while near the gate as the sun began to emerge from the horizon. I got my bag weighed and tagged because it was heavier than the 7kg limit and eventually, boarding commenced at Gate 20 and I settled in Seat 20F. Excited for the days ahead, and with anticipation of how the weather was going to be like in the capital, the plane pushed back from the gate, taxied to the runway and took off towards Wellington on time. Not bad for a Jetstar flight so far. During the flight, I received my meal of banana bread and a cup of tea which I'd pre-paid earlier online. It was scrumptious! Most of the flight was uneventful as there were no inflight entertainment screens. But I made good talk with my pals. Nonetheless, it was a pretty short flight to the capital and there was not much turbulence as we descended. We then touched down smoothly in the rain and then taxied a little while before we parked at Gate 21. Overall, I was satisfied and the boys were too. After disembarking and exiting the terminal, we hauled an Uber which took us to our hotel in the city. While the weather was not pleasant (which was expected), we made good fun of our trip and was looking forward to the return journey afterwards. Thanks for your patience between this video and the end of the last season, I can't wait to share more of where I've been. Until next time, thank you for watching :)

Hi do you get free snacks on jetstar in nz?

[@AEROFLIGHTXV]

No, I prepaid for them when booking my flight. Air NZ, however, does offer free snacks and refreshments when you travel with them.

[@kiwibelt]

@@AEROFLIGHTXVfor a huge extra price on your initial fare.

Air NZ is too expensive. Jetstar gives me the flexibility and cheaper fares I need :)
