The 2023–24 FIS Ski Jumping World Cup was the 45th World Cup season in ski jumping for men, the 27th season in ski flying for men, and the 13th season in ski jumping for women. It was organized by the International Ski Federation (FIS).[1][2][3]
The men's season started on 25 November 2023 in Ruka, Finland and concluded on 24 March 2024 in Planica, Slovenia. The women's season started on 2 December 2023 in Lillehammer, Norway and concluded on 21 March 2024, also in Planica.[4][5]
Halvor Egner Granerud (men's) and Eva Pinkelnig (women's) were the reigning champions from the previous season, but they did not defend the title. Granerud finished the season in 24th place and Pinkelnig in 2nd place. Stefan Kraft (men's) and Nika Prevc (women's) became the new overall champions. Both Nations Cups were won by Austria.
There were a record 32 individual men's events and 24 individual women's events, in addition to 7 team events (3 men's team, 3 men's super team and 1 women's super team).
For the first time since the 2019–20 season, there were no mixed team competitions on the World Cup calendar.
The Polish Tour made its debut and took place in Wisła and Zakopane. Ski flying competitions were first introduced as part of the Women's World Cup and took place in Vikersund, where a total of two new women's world record distances were set (one of them not recognized due to crash).
Noriaki Kasai became the first ski jumper in history over the age of 50 to qualify for a World Cup competition and reach the final round, breaking the record for the oldest ski jumper to compete in a top-level competition. He achieved this 34 years after scoring his first points (9 December 1989), and managed to score a point in his 570th appearance.[6]
Austrian ski jumper Stefan Kraft won 13 individual events and scored 2,149 points, winning his third overall title and third Raw Air Tournament. Daniel Huber won ski flying title and Planica7, while Ryōyū Kobayashi took his third Four Hills Tournament trophy. Slovenian rising star Nika Prevc took her first women's overall title with seven individual wins in the season, and Eirin Maria Kvandal won her first Raw Air Tournament.

For the first time in the World Cup's history, a competition was planned on Skalite in Szczyrk, Poland. The city would be the 59th town to host the World Cup, but it was not among the cities where the competition itself took place due to its cancellation due to strong wind.[7] However, they still managed to complete the qualifying series round in Szczyrk, which counted for PolSKI Tour overall classification.
