Fly away with<br />

Jetstar Asia.<br />

Chung Chun Wang<br />

HONG KONG<br />

For my first anniversary of my wedding,<br />

I wanted to make<br />

the day truly<br />

memorable and<br />

Jetstar helped us<br />

a lot. I managed<br />

to get a pair of<br />

affordable tickets<br />

for a weekend<br />

getaway to Hong<br />

Kong. In Hong Kong,<br />

my wife and I met<br />

the internationally<br />

famous and eminent<br />

couple, Mickey and<br />

Minnie. We also<br />

sampled Cantonese,<br />

Shanghainese and<br />

Szechuan cuisines.<br />

We found Hong Kong to be a unique city,<br />

as we could experience both traditional<br />

and modern aspects of life — think a<br />

panoramic view of soaring skyscrapers<br />

happy wedding anniversary with Mickey<br />

from beautiful Kowloon harbour and on the<br />

other hand, ancient Buddhist temples full of<br />

worshippers with incense sticks. It was such<br />

a marvellous weekend.<br />

HAIKOU<br />

Our last extended family trip back to<br />

Hainan Island was 13 years ago. Back<br />

then, there was no direct flight to Haikou<br />

from Singapore, and we had to transit<br />

in Guangzhou or Hong Kong. Now, with<br />

Jetstar’s direct flight, we managed to enjoy<br />

greater convenience and cash savings. In<br />

addition, this Hainan trip greatly met our<br />

expectations. Both flights departed and<br />

arrived on time. The flight was smooth,<br />

in-flight service was prompt and the crew<br />

members were efficient. We were flying<br />

to Haikou to commemorate the first<br />

anniversary of our grandfather’s death. This<br />

picture was taken in front of his coconut<br />

villa in Wen Chang, a one-and-a-half hour<br />

drive from Haikou. What makes our “star<br />

jumping” picture more memorable is that<br />

for the first time, all 11 of my grandfather’s<br />

grandchildren were congregated at his<br />

beloved coconut villa. We believe that it<br />

meant something special to him with all of<br />

us present. Thank you, Jetstar.<br />
