    Official fleet page (fleet numbers dated 31 July 2025) publishes JQ's 335-seat original and 325-seat refreshed 787-8 layouts, 232-seat A321neo (LR), 188-seat A320neo, 180-186-seat A320ceo range, and 230-seat A321ceo, with seat dimensions and hardware.

    Official group page identifies Jetstar Airways in Australia and New Zealand as Qantas Group-owned, identifies Jetstar Asia as a separate Singapore carrier, and records that Jetstar Asia ceased operations on 31 July 2025.

    The archived object is a rendered text extract because Jetstar blocked raw HTML retrieval. The table does not distinguish original and refreshed 787 widths, so its 787 dimensions are applied as Jetstar's type-level figures.

    Official sales kit publishes the original international 787-8 as 21 Business and 314 Economy with 2-3-2 Business and 3-3-3 Economy geometry.

    The sales kit predates the active 787 refresh and is used only for original-cabin geometry; newer official sources control current counts and transition status.

How this map was built

CURRENT DURING TRANSITION: Jetstar's official pages say original and refreshed 787s coexist while all 11 aircraft are converted through late 2027. The original international split is 21 Business + 314 Economy = 335. Business is the sales kit's three full 2-3-2 rows. Economy is transcribed from the official July 2026 booking preview: rows 10-11 full 3-3-3; row 12 ABCDEF; row 13 ABC; rows 23-41 full; row 42 ABC/GHJ; rows 44-53 full; rows 54-55 AC/DEFG/J; rows 56-57 DEF = 314. The booking preview sells rows 10, 23 and 44 as Extra Legroom, resolved to N, so SeatLink's summary is 21J/27N/287Y while retaining Jetstar's 21J/314Y cabin split. Business A/E/J positions receive the structural no-direct-aisle flag. No 787-8 engineering window grid exists; every window position remains unknown.
