ASIA NEWS

TUPNews endorses Jetstar, a subsidiary of Qantas and the Ryanair of Asia.

Faced with a work-mandated week in Singapore, I pulled some strings and got myself sent out four days early, and looked for a cheap return flight from SG to Hong Kong. Jetstar sorted me out with one for £120.

The seats are comfortable, the décor soothing, the staff uniforms are sleek black dresses and the inflight food and drink surprisingly inexpensive. But best of all, there was a flight attendant on the outbound flight named Jolene. And on the return flight, one called Tammy. Excellent.

Jetstar: they're a little bit country, I'm a little bit rock and roll
