Damn worth it?

After some quick calculations, it was deduced that…

The total you would pay with Jetstar, should you go for individual flights, would amount to $2,232.16. That’s roughly around $200 difference from the package fare ($2,018).

Not too bad. $200 could get you a lot of stuff.

So yeah, get it if you’re one who likes to scrimp and save on his leaves, enjoys short but routine trips year-round and appreciates the small savings here and there.

On the other hand, if you’re the kind that prefers 2 week-long vacations and not have your schedule tied down by pre-affixed dates, get the ala carte ones instead.
