Following on Qantas’ announcement of an increase in its fuel surcharge on air fares to Australia, Virgin Blue announced a round of new fare increases.  Citing the rising cost of fuel as the primary reason, a flight to Australia from Los Angeles on VAustralia will soon cost up to an additional $230 round-trip.  This increase will become effective for all tickets issued after March 8.

When you consider that the cost of airfare to Australia, using AirBank’s low consolidator fares, can be found for just a bit more than $600 round trip before the taxes and fees, the new fuel surcharge levy is a huge increase – especially compared to Qantas’ more modest assessment of approximately $60 round trip.

Your cheap flight to Australia on VAustralia to fly to Brisbane and enjoy its fine wineries will take a major price hike on March 9.

VirginBlue will also increase the cost of checked luggage on its domestic Australia flights from $20 to $40 for an additional bag.  If you are planning to add a visit to New Zealand, Fiji, Bali or other exotic international destination with a flight on VirginBlue, the fee for checking your additional bag (all Virgin Blue flights allow only a maximum of 1 checked bag without a fee) will also be increased by $20 each way.

Throughout the myriad difficulties Qantas had last year with the spacious A380 planes, its chief executive, Alan Joyce, was consistent with his message that passenger and crew safety was the primary concern.  The decision to resume A380 flights from Los Angeles  was reached only after the A380 aircraft passed extensive checking – with monitoring by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority, Airbus, Rolls-Royce, Australian regulators, and Qantas engineers.  The planes will be reintroduced progressively on the Los Angeles to Australia routes.

Qantas blames rising jet fuel prices heightened by the unrest in Egypt for the increase in its fuel surcharge on air fares Australia – and indicated that the surcharge could be raised even higher in the near future.  Flights to and from Europe to Australia are hardest hit by this increase, with an additional $50 added to the cost of a one-way ticket.

While raising prices may result in fewer passengers on the flights, the threat of continued higher fuel prices seems to be a greater concern.

Jetstar, Qantas’ low-cost carrier for air fares within Australia and to New Zealand, will not follow Qantas Airways with higher fuel surcharges, but may increase some fares and / or increase checked luggage fees.

If you’re planning to travel to Australia within the next year, you can avoid paying the higher fuel surcharge by purchasing your air fares Australia before February 18.  Once flights are ticketed, increased fees for fuel surcharges or taxes are not assessed.

AirBank’s online booking engine offers low cost consolidator tickets  on Qantas and the other airlines that fly to this region.  Save now by finding your tickets for your air fares Australia and purchase them before the planned increase takes effect.

Pricing jumps over $200 per person for a departure in October, a more expensive time of year to travel on flights from the USA to Australia, with steady increases in fares through the end of the year.

Flights to Australia have been priced at record lows for over the past year, as capacity – the number of available seats on all the airplanes on the routes to Australia – increased and demand could not fill the seats.  Each airline – Qantas, VAustralia, Delta, United and Air New Zealand – offered a new special on almost a weekly basis to have lower pricing or a better deal than its  competition.

This price war will end soon because the airlines cannot continue to operate routes at a loss.  Last month plans to restructure VAustralia, Virgin Blue and Pacific Blue into one entity to reduce costs were announced.

Qantas recently announced a 3% fare increase on published international and domestic airfares  effective July 28.

If you’re planning a trip downunder within the next year, find your cheap flights from the USA to Australia by July 27 to avoid paying higher fares.  When one airlines announces a price increase on this highly competitive route, the other airlines are sure to follow.

Effective April 1, travelers on Virgin America, with connecting flights from New York, Boston, Seattle, Washington, DC, Las Vegas, San Francisco and Fort Lauderdale to Los Angeles, will earn Elevate mileage points for airfare to Australia on VAustralia and for flights within Australia and to other Asia-Pacific destinations on VirginBlue.

If you’re a Virgin America Elevate program member and  found AirBank’s cheap airfare to Australia on VAustralia, you’ll be able to earn points for your flight downunder.   Sounds good!  Especially as the redemption levels for free flights to Australia start at only 40,000 miles.

But there’s a catch – the Elevate program awards its mileage points for flights to Australia based on the airfare class and cost basis used for your ticket plus the distance you’ve traveled.

For example, the flight from LAX to Sydney is slightly less than 15,000 miles.  With the Elevate program and AirBank’s cheap airfare to Australia in Q class (the lowest rate available), you would earn only 1,499 mileage points for your flight.

By booking your airfare on Qantas in O class (AirBank’s cheapest class available)  and crediting your American Airlines Aadvantage account, you would earn almost 7,500 miles – and need only 37,500 miles for a ticket to Australia.

Qantas and VAustralia have been matching each other’s sale airfares to Australia since late last year and consistently have competitive pricing on flights to Australia.  If you’re planning to reap the benefits of the mileage you’ll earn on the long-haul flight Downunder, check the airlines’ frequent flier programs to make sure the $4 or so on cheap airfare to Australia isn’t costing most of your mileage points.

Despite increased competition from Pacific Blue’s new service for cheap flights from Australia to New Zealand, Air New Zealand plans to maintain its market share of the 5.8 million passengers who fly this route annually.  Currently, the airline offers 280 flights from Australia to New Zealand each week.

The new program will include a price reduction in Air New Zealand’s lead-in fares for this route; new kiosks and a streamlined airport check-in process to reduce the airport wait time by 45 minutes; standardizing its Airbus A320 aircraft to only one class with 171 seats; and introducing a new way in which airplane tickets will be sold.

Fares through the program will be available for flights to and from Christchurch on April 29 for travel beginning in late August; the new program will be available system-wide in early September for flights beginning in late November.

For international travelers who plan to visit both Australia and New Zealand on their vacations, the lower pricing for the Australia to New Zealand flights will provide savings when purchasing their international airfares.  And if you already have your airfare to Australia for travel later this year, you’ll be able to save on adding a flight from Australia to New Zealand by waiting for Air New Zealand’s new program to go into effect.

If you’ve used our online search engine to find your airfare to Australia and found fares higher than our $559 consolidator rates, you may wonder – where are the cheap flights to Brisbane?

The low-priced fares are available only for travel beginning May 1 to June 8 and July 24 through September 21.  If  you are searching for a flight that leaves LAX on any date before or after the “low season” for flights to Australia, the fare will be much higher.  On average, the fares to begin your travel in the summer – June 9 through July 23 will be at least $300 per ticket more.

Airfare for flights to Brisbane is also higher in April, which is early fall in Australia.  April is a great time to travel to Australia as it’s the end of the rainy season in the north and still not too chilly in the south.  But flights will cost more if you plan to visit in April.

To find the lowest priced tickets for your trip, search with flexible dates and plan your flights to Australia in low season.  While it will be winter in Australia, many parts of the country – especially Brisbane, the Sunshine Coast and tropical north – will have warm temperatures and sunny days.

Our tickets for the cheapest flights to Brisbane are very limited and it’s now difficult to find these low cost tickets for most departure dates in May.  If you’re searching for cheap flights to Brisbane and can’t find the tickets you need, call us at 1-888-825-4529 or send us an email and we will check on availability and pricing for you.

AirBank’s online booking engine has the lowest pricing – with no additional service fees! -  for round trip cheap airfares to Australia.  We recently checked our price for flights in May and found airfares as low as $559 plus taxes and airline fees, round trip from LAX to Sydney, Brisbane or Melbourne.

But if you’re planning a trip that includes multiple destinations, it’s often best to plan your trip and any domestic flights before purchasing your international tickets.  Here are a few tips to consider before purchasing your flights:

• Unlike the United States with a lot of options for domestic air travel, there are only three major domestic airlines and several smaller regional airlines in Australia.  Flights are scheduled fairly frequently between the major cities, but are often only once or twice each day to the smaller airports.  Some destinations do not have daily air service.
• Each of the airlines has different levels of service and rules – ranging from the cost (or not) of changing tickets to charges for checked luggage to beverages served on-board and legroom on the planes.
• Qantas flies non-stop from the United States to Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney.  Qantas also flies to a wide range of domestic destinations within Australia and frequently has special offers that include a “free” or reduced cost flight to a featured city.  The current special includes a  stopover (or “free” flight) to Melbourne,  Sydney or Brisbane with the purchase of an international flight from the US  to Cairns, Tropical North Queensland’s Gateway to the Great Barrier Reef.  A previous special included a free flight to Kangaroo Island with the purchase of a Qantas Aussie AirPass.
• You’ll receive a discount on domestic Qantas flights if you purchase Qantas’  international airfare to Australia with a land package from a travel agent or a US-based tour operator.   Luggage limits on domestic flights are also higher for travelers who have flown internationally on Qantas.
• Jet Star is the “discount” domestic airline in Australia.  Jet Star flights do not share Qantas’ higher luggage limits even when a Jet Star flight is included as part of an international airline ticket package.
• VAustralia flies from the US to Australia; VirginBlue, also a member of the Virgin Group, flies domestically within Australia. For cheap airfares within Australia, VirginBlue offers an AirPass that can be used to travel domestically regardless of your international airline. The VirginBlue pass can only be purchased outside Australia and must be purchased in advance. A “handling fee” will be added to each flight segment when purchased – (your final cost will be more than the price of each ticket).
• Note:  Not every domestic Australian airline flies to all destinations.  For example, if you’re planning to visit the Red Centre icons of Alice Springs and Uluru, your choice is limited to Qantas.

When planning to buy  cheap airfares to Australia you may benefit from an Aussie AirPass or one of the current special offers.   Contact AirBank at 1-888-825-4529 to work out the best options for your travel to and throughout Australia and the South Pacific.

Brisbane, the capital of Queensland, is known for sunshine and warm weather an average of 300 days of each year.  Using Brisbane as your “home base” for your Australian vacation, you can find an amazing number of things to do – cuddle a Koala, feed a dolphin, picnic in a rainforest, or see the sights along the river on a vintage paddle boat.

Explore over 700 shops clustered along a half-mile long Mall and take a tour of Queensland’s most popular brew at the XXXX Ale House.  Ride along the many pathways on a bicycle, or leave the pedaling to someone else and enjoy a pedicab ride.

Climb the Story Bridge for spectacular views, spend a day at an Outback cattle station, enjoy an Aboriginal dance performance or try sand tobogganing on Moreton Island.  When you start your Australia vacation with our specially priced flights to Brisbane, you’ll be planning your return visit while on the flight home.
