Jetstar flies Singaporeans home for National Day

With over 200,000 Singaporeans living abroad, Jetstar is on a mission to bridge the distance between families by giving 25 lucky overseas Singaporeans based in the Asia Pacific region, the chance to come home and celebrate one of the nation’s biggest milestones.

Singaporeans can nominate their loved ones living abroad by heading to the Jetstar Asia Facebook page. The most compelling nominations will win a trip home for the nominee.

Jetstar Asia CEO Barathan Pasupathi said that Singaporeans living overseas are an integral part of the Singapore family.

“Singaporeans have a strong sense of identity and when abroad, build vibrant communities where they live. Jetstar Asia is in its tenth year of operations in Singapore and we are giving back to the community and bringing Singaporeans home for the SG50 celebrations."

“Since 1965, National Day has been a grand display of national pride and this year will be particularly significant as Singaporeans pay homage to our founding fathers, pioneer generation and commemorate our progress as a nation,” said Mr Pasupathi.

The nomination period has commenced and will end on 26 April 2015, followed by the announcement of winners one week later. The 25 selected Singaporeans will receive return flight tickets back to Singapore.

These lucky homecoming Singaporeans may also find themselves winning more than just a trip to celebrate the nation’s Jubilee birthday with their families. After all, an opportunity like this only comes once every 50 years.
