If you've been staring at your calendar and feeling like it's decidedly lacking in holiday breaks, now is the time to fix that. Virgin Australia has come through with cheap-as-chips international and domestic flights thanks to a five-day flash sale that's happening right now, with low-cost airfares to a bunch of idyllic destinations.
During the airline's sale, aptly named 'the sale', you can snap up an ultra-affordable plane ticket to dreamy escapes like Bali, Fiji and Queenstown direct from Melbourne. Before you know it, you'll be lounging in paradise.

Flight deals for Melbourne departures include return flights to Nadi, Fiji for $579, to Denpasar, Bali for $599 or a one-way fare to beautiful Queenstown for $265. Any of those holiday spots sound more than ideal to us. For a holiday closer to home, there's 12 Aussie destinations included too, like a one-way flight to Darwin for $179, Sydney to $109 and Hamilton Island for $139. The flights are available for selected travel dates between January to August, 2024 — so you can book a summer vacay or a wintery escape.
If you're keen for a getaway, get in quick, as the sale ends at midnight on Monday, October 23 — or sooner if the flights sell out before then.
To jump on the offer, you can book your flights on the Virgin Australia website.
