The 1988–89 FIS Ski Jumping World Cup was the 10th World Cup season in ski jumping.

Season began in Thunder Bay, Canada on 3 December 1988 and finished in Planica, Yugoslavia on 26 March 1989. The individual World Cup overall winner was Jan Boklöv, one of the pioneers of modern V-style (as the only one this season in this tehnique easily surpassed everyone else with parallel style by a few meters) and Nations Cup was taken by Team of Norway.

Events in Oberhof were moved from large to normal hill due to lack of snow. And total 3 events were cancelled; Bærum and Falun (due to lack of snow) and Harrachov (due to bad weather).

20 men's individual events on 14 different venues in 11 countries were held on three different continents (Europe, Asia and North America). Two competition were cancelled this season.

Peaks of the season were FIS Nordic World Ski Championships, Four Hills Tournament, Bohemia Tournament and K.O.P. International Ski Flying Week.
