Queensland open for Christmas! SYD – Gcoast $65, Bris $75, Sun Coast $81, Townsville $93, CNS $124, MEL – GCoast $101, from ADL $115 & More

Whitsundays, Queensland

Now that Queensland is opening the borders from Dec 1, it’s time to plan those Christmas and New Year trips! There are some great prices to be had, so I’ve searched over the roughly Christmas/NY period from mid-December to early January, for a bunch of common routes, and posted the prices below. Hopefully they help someone!

Note that prices are fluctuating and with Black Friday, anything could happen, but the usual rule with Christmas plane tickets is – book as soon as you can.

Jetstar, so carry on luggage only is included in the flight. Sometimes Virgin/Qantas are the cheapest airline on the day – that’ll appear in the search results, consider it a bonus if that happens!

And of course, you can search other routes or dates at Beat That Flight.
