$299: Zip over to Europe with Scoot
Budget carrier Scoot is offering incredibly cheap one-way fares from Australia to Europe. The cheapest return fares are priced at $598.
Sample fare is Perth to Athens or Berlin from $299 one-way.
These are one-way fares on a low-cost carrier and do not include checked baggage, meals and entertainment.
Travel dates: 22 February - 30 May 2019.
Sale ends: 28 February, unless sold out prior.
We love these flights because:
- The travel period is Europe's shoulder season, which means less tourists but potentially chilly weather.
- This incredible sale is ideal for those travelling on a tight budget and with a light backpack.
- Although flights only land in Athens and Berlin, it's cheap and easy to access other parts of the continent.
