Re: Jetstar 1c fares and reduced fares for no carry-on

The sale is running as well as the Not Sorry John party this month.


I just keep getting the 'sorry' page. I predict no one else gets one.

Re: Jetstar 1c fares and reduced fares for no carry-on

Had a go halfheartedly last night. The trick was getting beyond that first page. Once you did, you could take your time. The two areas that were bottlenecked was the first page and the "Processing Payment" page which is where I fell down. I had the seats and payment details 4 times,but the payment gateway kept falling over. I used to be able to hit the back button, but something new was in place from the Jetstar website that refused to let me go 1 step back. Anyhow, seemed like Firefox browser worked better this time than IE.

Onya Mal, nice to see someone here got their ticket in the Jetstar Lottery.

Re: Jetstar 1c fares and reduced fares for no carry-on

Evening ,

Last night i scored a total of 3 PNR's, yes 3 PNR's
I am going to tell you how i pulled this off, and this could help others in future sales.

Step1- i browsed the Internet for dates and locations of this possible sale. I then wrote down all the dates, and after looking at all the 5cent, 12 dollar, and 24 dollar previous sales i noticed that they were all on Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturdays. The Dates were also 3rd May(tues) to 3rd June(wed), so i have got the dates correctly now. I stuck a list of dates that i could use/travel on next to my computer screen.
Step2- i analyzed the previous sales. I also noticed in this sale that when you clicked the url in the email it went to the "We hope to see you tonight at 8pm screen", so obviously their was another screen beyond this that i had to get into. So i had a look at all the previous URL's
Jetstar Airways Cheap Flights, Low Fares all day everyday from the world's best Cheap Fare airline | Search Flights (five cent url)
Jetstar Airways Cheap Flights, Low Fares all day everyday from the world's best Cheap Fare airline | Search Flights (twelve dollar)
Jetstar Airways Cheap Flights, Low Fares all day everyday from the world's best Cheap Fare airline | Search Flights (24dollar(footy))

so i just tried
Jetstar Airways Cheap Flights, Low Fares all day everyday from the world's best Cheap Fare airline | Search Flights (one)
no luck, so what about
Jetstar Airways Cheap Flights, Low Fares all day everyday from the world's best Cheap Fare airline | Search Flights (onecent)
yes, i got into a screen that was not as complete yet, the header was the Sunrise 299 international sale one, but all the dates, destinations were in tact on the screen. I went through that booking search, and noticed on all the Tuesday's, Wednesday's and Saturdays, on selected flights desplayed a usual fare price, BUT in a different font (smaller font, different font as well). These fares were only on these restricted flights as well. So i thought that these fares will be converted into $0.01 fares, and right i was. I made my homepage this Jetstar Airways Cheap Flights, Low Fares all day everyday from the world's best Cheap Fare airline | Search Flights(onecent). I opened up twenty or so browers with all the dates entered and ready to hit go. I had a dummy booking page up so i knew when the sale started. Bang, it began, so i clicked go, not all at once, just one every 2 or 3 seconds. As i already had my details entered within the JQ database, i entered my name, clicked next and i decided to offset my carbon commisions as well, seing i am nice, and it was so smooth. I decided to pay via Direct Deposit, which was also another fastner. I had now got my first daytrip to Sydney!, Did the same for two other URL's until i noticed on the rest that my chances were getting slower and slower. But hey, i was happy.
So if there is a cheap sale i suggest you do about 5mins research and it might pay off. Direct deposit is the way to go because you are not travelling until 3 or so months, also faster than CC.

Any Questions, just ask me!!!

-Knowing the insides and out of Computers might help as well guys!
-Was trying as hard to leave the link on here but i can only access this website on my dial up account, and that line was currently being used
