There are a lot of websites offering cheap flights to Australia. Buying online is cheaper than through a travel agent, because it saves the agent’s costs. Here are links to websites that offer discount student plane tickets, and other really cheap plane tickets, as well as Australian international airports, and the airlines where you may get a ticket when the online cheap plane flights have been sold out.
Arrange a Stopover with Cheap Plane Flights Whatever way you do, remember – a flight to Australia is a long flight. Make sure you bring a good book, for it will take about 30 hours from Europe or North America before you are Down Under. Or – break it up. It makes each flight shorter, gives you another place to discover, and time to get used to the time difference somewhere in the middle. For example – when you fly to Australia from North America, you will usually fly over the Pacific Ocean and have a stop-over in Hawaii, Fiji, Cook Islands or Tahiti. When you fly from Europe, you will fly over Asia and your typical stopovers are Hong Kong, Singapore, Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur. Here’s your chance to spend a few days in these places for no extra cost – just arrange your very cheap plane tickets so that the last bit of your flight starts a few days later. It’s much nicer than just arrive in Bangkok and rush to change the plane before another 8 hours tiering flight to Australia.
Arrange a Second Stopover with Cheap Plane Flights And you can do the same if you get a second stopover on your own continent – which you are likely to do if you live in a place with no direct flights to Asia/Pacific. If you live in New York for example, you will have another stopover in Los Angeles. If you live in Scandinavia, you’ll typically have a stopover in Paris, London or Frankfurt. If you haven’t been there, you can arrange your very cheap plane tickets so that you can spend a day or few in one of them, it doesn't cost anything extra.
