Qantas will shut down Jetstar Asia more than two decades after the budget airline launched in Singapore

Qantas will shut down Jetstar Asia more than two decades after the budget airline launched in Singapore.

The announcement on Wednesday comes as Jetstar Asia struggles with rising costs and competition in the region. 

Qantas will redirect the 13 Jetstar Asia Airbus A320 aircraft to routes in Australia and New Zealand.

The move will also free up $500million for it to invest in fleet renewal plans. 

Jetstar Asia will cease operating on July 31 and will continue flights for the next seven weeks. 

Jetstar Japan will not be impacted.
