Jetstar is to launch long-haul two-class A330-200 services from Changi Airport in Singapore direct to Melbourne and Auckland.

Subject to regulatory approvals the airline is planning to launch daily direct Singapore - Melbourne return flights from 16 December 2010, and daily direct Singapore - Auckland return services from 17 March 2011.

Jetstar Chief Executive Officer Bruce Buchanan said by building this new long haul flying through Singapore, Jetstar’s three largest operations in Australia, Singapore and New Zealand would be connected offering customers an array of new affordable travel options.
