"We are contacting customers who are booked to travel during the three-week works period to discuss their options including indirect flights via another port, a travel credit, or a refund to their original form of payment."
Jetstar said it understands this will be "disappointing and frustrating" for impacted travellers.

The airline added it "proactively" stopped taking bookings for flights between Darwin and Bali during this period to limit the number of customers impacted while it waited for confirmation the maintenance would go ahead.
"We look forward to resuming our flights from Darwin to Denpasar from Sunday 29 October 2023," Jetstar said.
Jetstar flights are still available from other cities to Bali during this period.
