Tomorrow, Jetstar Asia will operate the airline’s first designated Vaccinated Travel Lane (VTL) flight.

Flight 3K683 will depart Singapore’s Changi International Airport at 7:15am on Monday 29 November, bound for Kuala Lumpur, allowing quarantine-free travel for the 170 passengers on board the Airbus A320.

The return VTL service from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore, 3K684, will arrive back at Changi Airport at 10:15am, marking Jetstar Asia’s first VTL flight into Singapore.

Comments attributed to a Jetstar spokesperson:

  • This is an important milestone in Jetstar Asia’s recovery as the airline once again offers passengers quarantine-free travel between Singapore and Malaysia.
  • Kuala Lumpur-Singapore has always been a critical route and this two-way VTL agreement will help begin to restore one of the world’s busiest international air links.
  • We’re seeing strong demand for these VTL services, highlighting the pent-up demand of customers wanting to reconnect with family, friends and colleagues.
  • Not only is this an important flight for Jetstar Asia, our customers, but also our crew.
  • Nearly 30 per cent of Jetstar Asia’s crew are Malaysian nationals, so like people all over the world, many have been separated from families and friends over the past two years and are excited about the prospect of visiting home.
  • We look forward to operating more quarantine-free travel in the coming weeks with our VTL flights from Darwin and Melbourne to commence next month.

Seven of Jetstar Asia’s 16 weekly return services in December between Kuala Lumpur and Singapore will be designated VTL flights, enabling fully vaccinated customers to enter Kuala Lumpur and Singapore, quarantine-free.
