Have you always dreamed of seeing Uluru up close? Maybe you've been saving up to experience the magical Sounds of Silence dinner under the starry night sky. Perhaps you want to explore further at Kings Canyon and Kata Tjuta...

Well, if visiting Australia's spectacular Red Centre has long been on your travel bucket list, this one's for you. Virgin Australia has just dropped $99 flights from Melbourne to Uluru as part of an exclusive 72-hour sale. And yes, you read that right: $99! It really doesn't get much cheaper than that.

This incredibly rare deal is part of Virgin Australia’s Uluru Sale, running from Monday, June 2 to Wednesday, June 4 at 11.59pm (or until sold out). The best part? You won’t have to wait long to take off, with travel dates available between July 2025 and March 2026.

Melbourne (and Brisbane) really have scored the best deal, with one-way economy fares to Uluru from just $99 – valid in both directions. Travellers from Sydney, Adelaide, Hobart and the Gold Coast can snap up one-way fares from $199, with a scenic stopover in Brissy or Melbourne.

Located on the ancestral lands of the Anangu people, Uluru is one of the most powerful places to connect with Aboriginal culture. Highlights include the breathtaking Wintjiri Wiru drone show, the captivating Sunrise Journeys light and art experience, and Indigenous-led experiences covering astronomy, ancient rock art and bush tucker. It's definitely a place you want to visit at least once in your life.
