Top End reconnects to the Gold Coast with Jetstar
Jetstar’s Gold Coast to Darwin seasonal service is now underway delivering greater choice and improved connectivity for Territorians and travellers between the Top End and Southeast Queensland.
Operating four times a week, the new seasonal service is expected to deliver more than 25,000 seats annually, boosting visitation and strengthening ties between the two regions.
This additional aviation capacity will allow Territory businesses to capitalise on new visitors from southeast Queensland with direct access to new source markets at competitive prices.
Jetstar Executive Manager, Customer Jenn Armor said We know Australians are eager to travel to places that offer something special. Darwin and the Gold Coast are two incredible cities, each with their own flavour and now they’re just one easy flight apart.
“This new service is about putting two incredible destinations within easier reach. Less time in transit means more time to enjoy your trip — and more money to spend when you get there.
“We’re proud to connect these two amazing regions and thank the Northern Territory Government, Darwin Airport and Gold Coast Airport for their support.”
This new route is supported by the Northern Territory Government through the Territory Aviation Attraction Scheme (TAAS).
The service will operate from 26 June 2025 to 24 October 2025 on an Airbus A320 aircraft.
