Jetstar Fleet Bombardier Dash 8 Q300 Cabin Interior Class Configuration and Seats Layout

Jetstar’s regional New Zealand services are operated by a fleet of Bombardier Q300 aircraft.

Jetstar’s Q300s can carry 50 passengers.

There are 50 leather seats laid out in an all-economy class configuration.

Each seat has a seat pitch of between 31 and 32 inches, as well as a width of 17 inches.

On Jetstar’s Bombardier Dash 8-Q300s, a seat in the ‘Standard’ seating zone (rows 2-9, 11 and 12) costs NZ$5 each, the ‘Up Front’ seats (all seats in row 1 except seat 1B) cost NZ$8 and the ‘Extra Legroom’ seats (seat 1B and row 10) costs NZ$15.

Seats 1E and F sit opposite seats 1C and D, and are rear-facing seats.

The seat was comfortable, and the legroom was more than enough; not what you’d typically expect from an aircraft of this size.

Jetstar provides the standard seat pocket contents on their Bombardier Dash 8-Q300; the aircraft’s safety card and inflight magazine.

The airline does not provide any seatback or overhead TVs, or entertainment app.
