Jetstar is giving away free flights, so they could be shouting your next vacay

Kirsten Wiig said it best in that plane scene from Bridesmaids: 'Help me I'm poor!'

Jetstar has just announced they're giving away free domestic AND international flights, the catch is that they're hiding them across the country, so get searching team. Queenstown, Sydney, the Gold Coast, and more are all on offer.

Starting tomorrow, the airline will be hiding three gift boxes (which you can redeem to get free flight vouchers) in iconic spots across Auckland. They'll be posting GIF clues to their gram and calling the goodie boxes 'Jetstar GIFts', which is a fantastic pun.

If you're not in Auckland, no need to worry, you can get in on the action too. Jetstar has hired some Kiwi influencers to reveal clues for some vouchers hidden in Wellington and Christchurch.

We absolutely adore a scavenger hunt. Getting my Dora Explorer on and getting some free stuff at the end? Sign me up, especially when the free stuff is a friggin flight.

If you want additional clues, you can share Jetstar's GIF clues on your own story and they'll send another hint your way.

Failing to find one of the gift boxes won't be the end of the world, as Jetstar is kicking off their Spring sale. There'll be domestic flights from as low as $29 and international flights from as low as $135.

The sale only runs for four days (from 12:00 am on the 31st of August to 11:59 pm on the 3rd of September) so you'll have to suss your travel plans quickly if you want that getaway.
