Qantas launches domestic flight sale with fares from $99

Qantas has launched a domestic sale just in time for winter that opens up a heap of potential holiday options, from sipping wine in Tasmania to walking among seals on Kangaroo Island. 

Whether you fancy drinking Tasmania's finest whiskey by a roaring fire, seeing the spectacular array of wildlife living on Kangaroo Island or heading for a well-deserved weekend away in Byron Bay, Qantas' latest domestic sale is here to cure us of our post Easter-holiday blues. 

While April's public holiday frenzy may be over, Qantas' stream of flight sales is far from done, with the airline today announcing another sale with tickets for over 60 Aussie destinations available to book from June 2025 to March 2026.

There are over a million seats in the sale, and there are sale fares on almost every domestic route Qantas offers.

The sale will last for one week (it ends at 11:59pm AEST on Monday, May 12), with fares starting from $99 one-way and more than 30 routes on sale for less than $150.

$99 flights from Tasmania to Melbourne are sure to be popular

Top of our minds are the Launceston to Melbourne flights and the Ballina to Sydney flights, both of which you can scoop up for less than $100.

In case you didn't know, Tasmania in winter is an underrated pleasure, and the Ballina/Byron area is a reliable pick for a holiday all year round, from glamping tents to ultra luxury hotels all up for grabs for those looking to soak up the region's sun and surf (for the adventure minded, a new hike also recently opened in Northern NSW too).
