Christmas Sale?

[albatross710]

I have a feel that Qantas traditionally runs a sale over the Christmas week to keep the tills ticking over, from memory they usually have it expiring on the first day back at work.

In my diary I've got a couple of itineraries that I'll book if they come on sale.

Might be my fun while Mrs Albatross710 does the Boxing day sales.

Anyone got a heads up on what's in store?

From memory there was a domestic sale between Christmas and New Year last year.

The current domestic sale would be hard to beat.

Seems to be a few good deals. However, from Perth its a bit like points flights, some very peculiar routing! Is there anyone who would like to PER-MEL-SYD-SIN?

For the same price as PER-SIN, absolutely

Isn't that sale over?

To earn more SC's and QFF points for the same price as the direct. I had SYD-MEL-PER-SIN booked for travel in March. Then I got sick and had to change the outbound flight from SIN and the QF consultant convinced me to book the much more direct SYD-PER-SIN. :shock:

It got extended For another week. The QFlink one has ended.

Thanks guys. From memory the Christmas one is usually pretty attractive as they have to motivate people to interrupt their holidays.

Last year there were two sales - one that went from mid Dec through to early Jan. This had prices similar to the current sale. There was also a Boxing Day sale that had some pretty good fares. From memory PER-MEL was around $169.

What tricked me is that SYD-BNE/MEL are both $104 and obviously not on sale.

They are back on sale now!

Thanks markis10. I saw that this morning and thought it looked different to the other day.

Luckily airfares are already purchased through to end of May....
