Two public holidays are just around the corner, and combined with the recent bursts of lovely springtime weather, we're in the mood for a long weekend by the ocean. But while Victoria's best beaches are still a little bit icy at this time of the year, the water is just right overseas.
Enter Scoot's hot new flight sale. The low-cost arm of Singapore Airlines has just dropped a flash sale on flights to tropical destinations across Asia, with flights from Melbourne starting at $200.
Wondering where you could go? Popular destinations like Bali, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam are all included in the sale, with discounted prices applying to two travel periods.
