Jetstar’s new sale is all about getting overseas and finding a new boo!
It’s called the ‘Profile Pic Upgrade Sale’ and can get you travelling across NZ for $30 or across the Tasman for $135. There are 17 different fares on offer and it kicks off from midnight Thursday 14 March through till the 18th.
They did some research and found that a bunch of single Kiwis are keen to find international love because they're not happy with local prospects.
Make sure you're reading the fine print on any of the tickets you do get because a lot of them are just seat tickets, which means no check-in baggage.

This sale came about after they surveyed 500 Kiwi on what makes them like someone on dating apps, and 50% responded that travelling photos do the job.
They also discovered that over 80% of single NZers think the dating scene here is bad due to a lack of options, and 53% are willing to head overseas to find their next partner.
If you are hoping for a bit of holiday romance, make sure you’re nice to staff and crew (just good advice in general) as 72% of respondents saw that as a turn-off. And, do NOT get your feet out on the plane, as 45% said that’s a one-way ticket to staying single.
Finally, make sure you try the local food as over a third say it's super unattractive to refuse local cuisine.
Whether you’ll be flying away with your partner, hoping to come back with one or just keen to spread your single wings, best of luck on your travels out there.
