Booking Tips
To locate the best fare availability
- Select the 'flexible with dates' option when starting your search (only available on point-to-point fares without stopovers). Seats are very limited. Better availability can be found for travelling Mondays to Thursdays. Fares displayed in your search results will be 'each way' including all taxes and fees.
- Sort your flight results 'by price' to locate our lowest priced options for your selected dates. Note: The lowest price option may include a connecting flight in another city.
If you're interesting in spending time in more than one city
