If you’re having an end-of-year crisis (yep, it’s already November), then perhaps it’s time to pack your bags and book an impromptu trip. You’ll want to act fast though, as Qantas has just dropped a mega sale with discounts on more than one million seats across 60 domestic routes. Trip to Kangaroo Island or Byron Bay, anyone?

You’ve got only 72 hours to snap up seats, with the sale launching on November 12 and ending just before midnight on November 14. Flights are up for grabs for travel between December 24, 2024 and September 18, 2025, meaning you could sneak in a last-minute summer getaway (or start planning for something epic next year).

Fares start at just $109 one-way, with more than 60 dreamy locations to choose from – and 30 routes going for under $150.

Those travelling from Brissy can say long live to summer with trips to the Whitsundays, Fraser Coast and Newcastle for $115 one-way. Perth jet-setters can nab flights to Geraldton, Broome and Kalgoorlie for under $250, while Adelaide adventurers can snap up flights to Melbourne, Kangaroo Island and Port Lincoln for less than $160.
