      HI,
      Again I look at 35% discount off Etihad flights but they are the same as the Etihad site.
      I can’t see a promo code anywhere. This is a bit misleading as same price.

      Hi Chris,

      While we don’t sell flights directly, if you’re looking for a round-the-world fare from Perth we can definitely point you in the right direction.

      Etihad doesn’t sell ’round-the-world’ tickets, but it does allow you to purchase a multi-city ticket with up to six flights/routes of your choice included. A few other places you could look are Helloworld and STA Travel.

      Hope that helps,

      Alex
