Travel Deals of the Week: Igloo, Mix & Match, Luxury Escapes, Antler

Score an impressive 50 per cent off the Igloo ICF fridge/freezer (a camping must-have), snap up seats to the USA from $994 return, shave half off Antler luggage and stay in all-inclusive Thai luxury for 64 per cent less.

Whether you're after a cheap international getaway or camping essentials for the upcoming Easter break, there's a deal this week to save you the big bucks.

First up: Igloo. Its ICF range of fridge/freezer combos is perfect for weekend adventures that require cool food and drinks all day long. It runs off electricity, but costs a fraction of the price of other 4WD fridges on the market. Even more so now that it's half-off at Anaconda, down from $699 to $349. The catch? You need to sign up as an Anaconda Adventure Club member for these prices. Don't worry, it's free to join.

If flights are in your sights, Flight Centre has stunned us this week, dropping fares to the USA for under $1000 return. We're not talking Hawaii either (though that is included), with Los Angeles flights starting from $994 return, San Francisco flights from $1193 return and Dallas flights from $1274 return. All are on Fiji Airways and all include a very wide set of travel dates, ranging from May 2025 to February 2026.

And if Hawaii is on your list? Flight Centre also has flights to Honolulu starting from $1034 return as well as a multi-stop deal that can see you island-hop from Australia to Honolulu and Maui return from $1247 return.

Now if you, like everyone is, is bingeing White Lotus right now, Thailand will be on your radar. 

Giving you all those Thai resort feels without the champagne budget is this all-inclusive stay at Diamond Cliff Resort & Spa in Phuket from Luxury Escapes. That's all three-meals daily, unlimited drinks and massages for up to 64 per cent off.

For something more kid-friendly, five-night stays at InterContinental Koh Samui Resort start from $1999 per room and come with daily brekky, dinner, cocktail hour, massage and unlimited ice cream for the kids, while eight-nights at Grand Mercure Khao Lak Bangsak are now $999 per room and include daily breakfast, daily lunch or dinner, a free massage and access to the Manta Ray Kids' Corner.

While we're on the subject of kids, if you're after something to save your sanity on holidays I can't recommend the Yoto Mini enough.

This audio player is brilliant for screen-free time and right now selected collections have plummeted in price, including The Gruffalo and Friends Collection (now $49.99, was $89.94) and Disney Classics Collection: Volume 2 (now $59.99, was $89.94).

Half-off Antler luggage has arrived. Picture: Antler

In terms of luggage, Antler has kicked off its mid-season sale extra early with up to 50 per cent off suitcases and overnight bags and Myer has 40-50 per cent off luggage across big brands like Samsonite, American Tourister and Kadi.

As for essentials? Sleep Dreams has travel-friendly bluetooth masks down as low as $34.95. (You'll thank us later when you're snoozing soundly in economy) and Fuzzy Friends has 33 per cent off their premium nappies.

There are loads more deals where those came from, so strap up and scroll down for all the best I've found this week:
