The HTML site redirects every request to /login/, so the feed itself is the machine-readable form of Jetstar's partner changelog. docs: https://apiblog.jetstar.com/ description: >- Jetstar runs a genuine, long-running, dated release-and-incident feed for API partners on its portal. It is a change feed rather than a versioned API changelog: entries are platform notifications (Navitaire New Skies upgrades, cloud migrations, scheduled maintenance, incidents) plus commercial changes that alter API behaviour (bundle and fare-family renames, zoned seat pricing, route launches/discontinuations). Recorded here is the recent window and the structural facts; the live feed is the source of truth. gated: true gating_note: >- Post bodies are readable anonymously over the WordPress REST API but the rendered pages sit behind the partner login. Deep links below therefore 200 with the login shell for the public. feed: index: https://apiblog.jetstar.com/wp-json/wp/v2/posts total_posts: 838 earliest: '2009' latest: '2026-06-30' categories: - {name: Outages, slug: outages, count: 329, url: 'https://apiblog.jetstar.com/category/outages/'} - {name: Scheduled Maintenance, slug: scheduled-maintenance, count: 248, url: 'https://apiblog.jetstar.com/category/scheduled-maintenance/'} - {name: NDC, slug: ndc, count: 234, url: 'https://apiblog.jetstar.com/category/ndc/'} - {name: Route Updates, slug: route-updates, count: 27, url: 'https://apiblog.jetstar.com/category/route-updates/'} category_caveat: >- The category literally named "NDC" is NOT IATA New Distribution Capability. Its 234 posts are route launches, seat maps, bundle changes and New Skies upgrade notices. A full-text search of all 838 posts for "New Distribution Capability", "AirShopping" and "OrderCreate" returns zero results. Any classifier keying on the string "NDC" will get this wrong. versioning: scheme: platform-release (Navitaire New Skies NSK x.y.z) header: null current: NSK 4.6 observed_history: NSK 3.3 → 3.4.6 → 3.4.8 → 4.1.1 → 4.5.1 → 4.6 detail: lifecycle/jetstar-lifecycle.yml entries: - date: '2026-06-30' category: Route Updates type: commercial title: Jetstar Route Discontinuation Notice — MCY–AKL and CNS–CHC services ending October 2026 url: https://apiblog.jetstar.com/ - date: '2026-06-10' category: NDC type: commercial title: 'Route Launch: WSI–BNE | WSI–MEL | WSI–OOL' - date: '2026-03-03' category: Route Updates type: commercial title: Route Launch — PER–CHC | CHC–PER - date: '2025-11-11' category: Route Updates type: commercial title: Route Launch — AVV–DPS | AVV–ADL - date: '2025-07-31' category: Route Updates type: breaking title: Jetstar Asia (3K) Service Discontinuation Update for API Partners highlights: - Jetstar Asia (3K) flew its last service on 31 July 2025; JQ and GK unaffected. - apisupport@jetstar.com named as the partner technical contact. url: https://apiblog.jetstar.com/jetstar-asia-3k-service-discontinuation-update-for-api-partners/ - date: '2025-05-12' category: Scheduled Maintenance type: platform title: Scheduled Maintenance — Navitaire load-balancer OS patch, 13 May 2025 02:00 AEST highlights: - OS patch to Navitaire load balancers to address vulnerabilities. - date: '2025-04-10' category: Outages type: incident severity: P3 title: Incident — New Skies TEST1 environment down (INC2803707) highlights: - Partners unable to connect to the NewSkies TEST1 environment. - date: '2024-12-10' category: Scheduled Maintenance type: platform title: Scheduled Maintenance — Navitaire OS patch, 11/12 December 2024 highlights: - Under 10 minutes of downtime for NewSkies core applications including airports and ancillary services. - date: '2024-11-13' category: Scheduled Maintenance type: platform title: Scheduled Maintenance — software version update for Inet firewalls (CHG0578406) - date: '2024-10-10' category: Scheduled Maintenance type: platform title: 'COMPLETED: New Skies TEST2 cloud connectivity migration' highlights: - Jetstar network-to-Navitaire connectivity moved off legacy links. - date: '2023-05-09' category: Scheduled Maintenance type: platform title: Minor New Skies production upgrade 4.5.1 UPD9 (CHG0539117) highlights: - No PROD outage; possible ~1 minute interruption during service restart. - date: '2023-02-15' category: NDC type: commercial title: Zoned Seat Pricing — full rollout (JQ) - date: '2023-01-24' category: NDC type: breaking title: Jetstar Bundles Changes — introduction of Service Bundles - date: '2023-01-11' category: Scheduled Maintenance type: platform title: Scheduled API cloud migration outage — PROD, 31 January 2023 - date: '2022-09-19' category: NDC type: fix title: GetAvailability bug fix in 4.5.1 - date: '2022-09-14' category: Outages type: incident severity: P2 title: Incident — New Skies API is down (INC1966717) highlights: - All systems interfacing with New Skies via the API lost access to New Skies data. - date: '2022-07-27' category: NDC type: platform title: 'NSK 4.5.1 upgrade: follow up' - date: '2021-10-05' category: NDC type: platform title: SOAP API cloud migration in PROD, 6 October 2021 - date: '2021-06-29' category: NDC type: platform title: DotRez API upgrade in production, 30 June 2021 - date: '2018-12-10' category: NDC type: breaking title: Flexibiz bundle renamed to Flex note: Carrier-specific fare-family rename that changes values partners parse. historical_milestones: - date: '2009-02-07' title: Jetstar cut over from Open Skies to Navitaire New Skies 3.0 note: Jetstar was Navitaire's first New Skies 3.0 customer. source: https://files.jetstar.com/api/public/content/2009-jetstar-new-reservation-system-live - date: '2013-09-15' title: New Skies 3.4.6 scheduled upgrade completed (test URL changes) - date: '2017-10-05' title: 4.1.1 upgrade issues / differences related: lifecycle: lifecycle/jetstar-lifecycle.yml conventions: conventions/jetstar-conventions.yml
