Planing your flight
One of the other differences here at JSV, is that instead of flying a fictional timetable and routes, we actually use the real life schedules. Follow the step by step instructions below to find and load a real life route into Flight Simulator.
Step 1:
Decide where you want to fly from and to. Use this link to open the real schedule from Jetstar Airways in a new window and then select where you want to fly from and to. This will give you the appropriate Flight Number for your flight.

Step 2:
Find the correct route in the table below. You can copy and paste the Route straight into the "SquawkBox Flight Plan Route" field (select only the text in the route and then use [Ctrl+c] for copy and then [Ctrl+v] for paste).
