Jetstar Japan Super Star Sale (live now–Nov 9): domestic Starter floors from ¥3,690 for winter side trips
Jetstar Japan’s Super Star Sale is live through Mon Nov 9, 2026 4:59 p.m. JST (2:59 a.m. in Toronto). Domestic Starter floors from ¥3,690 on 16 routes — what’s included, blackouts, and how Canada/NA planners should use it.
Published: November 6, 2026 · 6 min read
If you are already flying into Japan for winter 2026–27 — or locking in a ski week, a Kansai stay, or an Okinawa warm break — Jetstar Japan’s Super Star Sale is a short booking window for cheap domestic hops. It is not a Canada–Japan international airfare sale. The deal covers 16 domestic Japan routes, with Economy Class Starter one-way floor fares from ¥3,690.
The sale is live now. Booking opened Friday, November 6, 2026 at 12:00 noon Japan time and runs through Monday, November 9, 2026 at 4:59 p.m. Japan time, or earlier if the allocated sale seats sell out. Start on Jetstar’s official site / Super Star Sale page (linked in Sources) and check the booking calendar for your exact dates.
| Japan (JST) | Toronto (Eastern) | Vancouver (Pacific) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sale opened | Fri, Nov 6, 12:00 p.m. | Thu, Nov 5, 10:00 p.m. | Thu, Nov 5, 7:00 p.m. |
| Sale ends | Mon, Nov 9, 4:59 p.m. | Mon, Nov 9, 2:59 a.m. | Sun, Nov 8, 11:59 p.m. |
Those conversions use standard offsets (JST = UTC+9, Eastern = UTC−5, Pacific = UTC−8).
What the advertised fare includes — and what it does not
Official sale footnotes describe these as Economy Class Starter one-way fares:
- Included in the floor figure: the base Starter fare only.
- No fuel surcharge on these domestic sale fares.
- Extra on top: payment fees, airport facility charges and other applicable fees. The total you pay at checkout is higher than the headline yen number.
- Checked bags are not included. Seat selection and other options are also paid add-ons on Starter.
- Carry-on: Jetstar’s home footnotes say flights operated by Jetstar Japan (GK), and Jetstar Airways (JQ) flights departing on or before February 1, 2027, include up to two pieces / 7 kg total of cabin baggage under the current rules. For JQ flights departing from February 2, 2027, cabin baggage moves to a size-based under-seat bag (with a paid priority cabin-bag option). Domestic sale flights are mostly GK, but always confirm the operator and baggage page at booking rather than assuming.
Starter fares are non-refundable. Changes are possible if you pay the change fee plus any fare difference — check the fare rules shown when you book.
Club Jetstar note in brief: new enrolments and renewals in Japan stopped from July 1, 2026. Existing members can still log in for member benefits on bookings.
Lowest one-way Starter floors (16 domestic routes)
The yen figures below are the lowest advertised one-way Starter floors, not a promise that a seat is open on your day. Seats and eligible weekdays are limited. Route list and floors follow TRAICY’s November 5, 2026 summary (secondary); confirm live availability on Jetstar’s booking calendar.
To / from Tokyo (Narita)
| Route | Floor (one-way Starter) |
|---|---|
| Osaka (Kansai) | ¥3,690 |
| Takamatsu, Kochi | ¥4,390 |
| Sapporo (New Chitose), Matsuyama | ¥4,490 |
| Asahikawa, Fukuoka, Miyazaki | ¥4,990 |
| Nagasaki, Oita, Kumamoto | ¥5,490 |
| Okinawa (Naha) | ¥5,990 |
To / from Osaka (Kansai)
| Route | Floor (one-way Starter) |
|---|---|
| Tokyo (Narita) | ¥3,690 |
| Sapporo (New Chitose) | ¥5,190 |
| Okinawa (Naha) | ¥5,890 |
Other
| Route | Floor (one-way Starter) |
|---|---|
| Nagoya (Chubu) – Fukuoka | ¥5,090 |
| Fukuoka – Sapporo (New Chitose) | ¥5,890 |
That set is what Jetstar markets as 16 domestic routes. Direction, date and flight number all matter — the same city pair can have different blackout windows in each direction.
Travel windows and blackouts are route-specific
Jetstar’s Japanese homepage banners the sale for boarding from late November 2026 into mid-February 2027, with start/end dates and blackout windows that vary by route. Do not treat a single nationwide travel window as gospel. Always open the calendar for your flight.
Official home examples checked today:
| Direction | Example floor | Eligible travel window (official card) | Excluded dates on that card |
|---|---|---|---|
| Osaka (Kansai) → Tokyo (Narita) | ¥3,690 | Nov 25, 2026 – Feb 10, 2027 | Jan 1–4, 2027 |
| Tokyo (Narita) → Osaka (Kansai) | ¥3,690 | Nov 25, 2026 – Feb 18, 2027 | Dec 24, 2026 – Jan 3, 2027 |
Other sample cards on the home page show different end dates and New Year blackouts (for example mid-December through early January exclusions on some Shikoku-linked samples). Secondary coverage sometimes quotes a broad Nov 23 start; official home cards for the ¥3,690 Kansai–Narita examples start November 25. Trust the calendar on Jetstar’s official site.

Why this matters for Canada / North America planners
This sale is useful after you are already in Japan — or once your international tickets are locked — for side trips such as:
- Narita or Kansai ↔ Hokkaido for ski season (see Japan ski resort opening dates 2026–27 and Hokkaido winter trains 2026–27)
- A Kyushu hop from Narita or Nagoya
- An Okinawa warm break from Narita or Kansai
- A cheap Kansai ↔ Narita reposition if your international arrival and departure airports differ
If you are still choosing how to reach Hokkaido from North America, our note on Vancouver / SFO–Sapporo nonstops for winter 2026–27 covers the international leg separately from these domestic sale fares.

Checklist before you buy a domestic LCC seat from overseas
- Confirm you are booking a domestic Japan flight, not an international Jetstar route, on Jetstar’s official site / Super Star Sale page.
- Set a reminder for the sale end: Mon Nov 9, 4:59 p.m. JST = 2:59 a.m. in Toronto, 11:59 p.m. on Nov 8 in Vancouver.
- Open the calendar for your exact direction — blackouts differ even on the same city pair.
- Budget payment fees + airport charges on top of the floor fare.
- Add checked bags and seats if you need them; Starter does not include checked baggage.
- Read the carry-on rules for your flight’s operator and date, especially anything after February 2, 2027.
- Expect non-refundable tickets and change fees if plans shift.
- Match names to passports and leave buffer time for domestic terminals, especially at Narita and Kansai.
