The 1990–91 FIS Ski Jumping World Cup was the 12th World Cup season in ski jumping and the 1st official World Cup season in ski flying with first ever small crystal globe awarded.

Season began in Lake Placid, United States on 1 December 1990 and finished in Štrbské Pleso, Czechoslovakia on 21 March 1991. The individual World Cup winner was Andreas Felder and Nations Cup was taken by Team of Austria. Total 4 events were cancelled; Oberwiesenthal was rescheduled 3-times (two times to Oberhof) and finally cancelled due to bad weather. Olympic test for both events in Courchevel was cancelled as new hills were not yet completed. And last of the season in Štrbské Pleso was cancelled due to severe crashes and poorly prepared inrun.

22 men's individual events on 16 different venues in 10 countries were held on three different continents (Europe, Asia and North America). Two competition were cancelled this season.

On 23 March 1991, André Kiesewetter made longest ever parallel style jump at 196 m (643 ft) in Planica, unfortunately with hand touch and didn't count as world record.[1][2][3][4]

Peaks of the season were FIS Ski Flying World Championships and Four Hills Tournament.
