The first month of the year has flown by, and the break we had over the holiday season feels like aeons ago now. It's not so fun getting back into the routine of regular life, but one way to feel better about it is to book in another holiday to look forward to, stat. Luckily, there are cheap flights up for grabs right now, so you won't have to break the bank to make that happen.
Qantas has just launched a mega sale on international flights – with 400,000 flights reduced across the majority of its global network. Keen for a Euro trip? You could fly from Melbourne to London and back for $1,749.
Among the routes on sale, other holiday hotspots include New York (with return fares from Melbourne starting at $1,699), Bali (with return fares from Melbourne starting at $679) and Los Angeles (with return fares from Melbourne starting at $1,199). Want to explore Asia? You could fly from Melbourne to Tokyo for $949 return, or to Hong Kong and back for $999.
If you’ve been saving up Qantas points, you’re in luck – sale fares can be redeemed using points. If you'd rather travel luxe, business and premium economy seats are also included in the sale, with premium economy flights from Melbourne to LA starting at $3,299.
The sale will run until Monday, February 10 – but the peak routes will likely sell out fast. Discounted flights are available for travel between Wednesday, February 5 2025 (that’s tomorrow, in case you’re in the mood for a last-minute getaway) until January, February 15 2026. Though some blackout periods apply, you’ll find discounted routes to some destinations during the school holidays and other peak travel times. If you're wondering when to take time off, here's your guide to how to strategically maximise your annual leave.
