What can you take on the airlines now?

Other than Qantas, what other budget airlines can I take to fly from Perth to Sydney & Queensland?

  • I've not decided where I will head for after touring Perth so maybe you can give me some suggestions. However, I'm not familiar with the types of budget airlines which provide domestic routes in Australia other than Qantas. Can you tell me which other airlines operate from Perth airport to (1) Sydney, (2) Melbourne and (3) Brisbane and (4) Queensland? Thanks.

  • Answer:

    Qantas is not a budget airline but quite often have sales. Keep an eye open for them. I would recommend against Jetstar, their flights get delayed and cancelled and are quite unreliable. They also fly into different airports then other airlines, further from the cities. To Sydney - Try Virgin Blue or Qantas. Tiger do not fly to Sydney. Melbourne - Virgin Blue or Tiger, but check that Tiger flys to Tullamarine. You DO NOT want to go to Avalon. Brisbane is in Queensland. You have Brisbane airport and another south of the Gold Coast in Coolongatta. Virgin Blue only fly to Brisbane which isn't too much of a problem, not if you wish to see both cities anyway, from Brisbane you can also travel north towards Cairns and the Great Barrier Reef. I'm not sure if Tiger fly to QLD. Qantas fly to both airports.

Qantas is not a budget airline, it can be fairly expensive. A budget airline in Australia is Virgin Blue. http://www.virginblue.com.au/ Check out the routes with them, i am sure they fly to destinations you mentioned. Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane are great places to visit!

The below is a good reputable company that has online booking and payments for flights within and outside australia. It considers all the companies. They also have specials advertised. If you like the beach and theme parks, go to Queensland. It is a real tourist place though, don't stay in brisbane, go to surfers paradise. If you can get to the national parks, only about 40 minutes drive in the rain forrest, very beautiful and some wonderful walks sydney is a wonderful place to visit, and has so much too see and do. They have a good public transport system via train and ferry. If you purchase a weekly ticket travel is unlimited and it is really affordable option. Things to do is - visit the opera house, climb up the harbour bridge, visit the zoo (a very good one with fantastic view, you catch the ferry) - visit the botanical gardens, visit china town and especially the chinese garden, also many more things, many within working distance. Catch the ferry to manly or bondi beach.

Qantas Virgin Check prices, especially the specials. Sometimes Qantas is cheaper than Virgin Jetstar (budget Qantas offshoot, cheaper than both). Tiger (just started domestic services to challenge Jetstar)
