Starting today, the airline's latest domestic sale features more than 2 million discounted fares across Australia’s top cities and regional routes, with flights starting from just $99.
The one-week-only sale kicks off today (April 21) and ends at 11.59pm (AEST) on April 28, unless sold out prior. You won’t even have to travel during dud dates, with fares available through to March 2027.

Whether you’re dreaming of a tropical beach escape, a fast-paced city break or a quiet regional retreat, Qantas’ sale fares likely have you covered. The cheapest one-way flights start at $99, with flights to Melbourne from Launceston, Devonport or Burnie all for less than a hundred dollars a pop.
