How do these prices compare?
We rarely see Qantas prices drop below $99, so $79 fares are a big deal from the airline.
Earlier this week, Virgin and Rex kicked off a price war for the Sydney-Melbourne route with each announcing record low fares from $39.
While Qantas's offer is double the price, it's the only airline that offers full-service with baggage, entertainment and refreshments included with your fare.
This Qantas sale is available until Saturday 28 August unless sold out prior.
What's the catch?
Flexibility: Great. Travellers are entitled to unlimited, free date changes until 31 January 2022 for domestic flights booked until 30 April 2021.
Airline: Great. Qantas is Australia's national carrier and offers full-service fares. That's checked baggage, in-flight meals and entertainment all included in your airfare.
Frequent flyer points: Good. Earn Frequent Flyer points when you fly with this Qantas sale. That means a minimum of 800 Qantas points and 10 status credits can be nabbed.
Travel time: Great. Don't worry about stressful transfer times with direct flights.
Weather: Okay. While March to May is the best time to visit Melbourne, it's a cosmopolitan city with lots to see and do. Be sure to check out one of the city's many cultural festivals, from Oz Comic-Con to the International Film Festival and more – there's something for everybody.
