Travel Deals of the Week: Qatar, Samsonite, Smilie, Luxury Escapes

It's not everyday you see flights to Europe for $1424 return, let alone with the World's Best Airline, but that's exactly what's happening with Qatar Airways

The 5-star airline has just released seats to Barcelona, Rome, Paris and other Euro hotspots from an incredibly low $1424 return. If you're headed to the UK, flights to London aren't too much more, starting at $1690 return. The caveat? You'll need to travel during low season with dates ranging from November 3 to December 3, 2025.

Prefer to head somewhere with more sunshine? Luxury Escapes can sort you out. This week families can tuck into 49 per cent off RACV Royal Pines Resort stays with four nights accommodation, unlimited Dreamworld entry and daily breakfast setting you back just $1239 per room.

Those looking to dust off their passports can stay six nights at the InterContinental Bali Resort for $1899 per room or swing by Diamond Cliff Resort & Spa for an all-inclusive seven night stay from $1519 per room (up to 64 per cent off).

To further put a smile on your dial (and make those Instagram pics shine) Smilie has taken up to 50 per cent off its teeth whitening products, including their Super Glow Whitening Toothpaste that one customer says is "like a stain eraser" and their travel-friendly On-the-go Whitening Pen.

Now, whether you've just returned from Europe with a wonky wheel (let's face it, cobblestones and suitcase wheels never go hand-in-hand) or are overdue for a luggage upgrade, you won't be stuck for choice right now.

That's because practically every big brand has ditched the dollars on their bestsellers. Samsonite is leading the charge with 40 per cent off selected cases when you spend $299 or more. They've also got a few best sellers on clearance including the 81cm Oc2Lite in aqua for $249.50 and the 55cm City Rhythm in black for $164.50.

For a wide mix of brands, Myer has taken a mighty 40 per cent off their stock of Samsonite, American Tourister, Kadi, Delsey and Antler pieces while Amazon Australia has up to 40 per cent off the Samsonite Hi Fi and 51 per cent off their American Tourister Curio 2.
