Spend summer in the USA with $989 return Qantas flights
From LA to San Fran, Dallas to New York, get ready to party in the USA this summer.
UPDATE 15 June: The free lounge access is no longer available however all bookings now made before 20 June will receive a free $50 Flight Centre voucher.
End of financial year sales are now officially underway and when it comes to travel, you'll often find last-minute Northern Hemisphere summer flights for off-peak prices.
Right now, Qantas has taken its sale to the US with flights to Los Angeles, San Francisco, Dallas, New York and Hawaii on sale from $989 return.
The lowest fare is from Sydney to Hawaii at $989 but don't let that discourage you because flights onto the mainland won't cost you too much more. In fact, they start from $999 on journeys from Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne to either Los Angeles or San Francisco.
At $10 more why wouldn't you travel all the way into California for the sun?
Flights to New York start from $1,199 return, though if you want to make a big trip of it Qantas also has multi-stop fares which take in Los Angeles and New York from $1,228 when departing from Brisbane or $1,229 on departures from Melbourne and Sydney.
Summer. We mentioned summer above and we're not kidding as all flights are available for trips between July and August which are those peak summer months. They're also available from October to early December and late-January to late-March for those wishing to catch the country during a different season or avoid the summer break crowds.
You have until 20 June 2018 to hop onto this sale, which you can do through Flight Centre here.
As a bonus, if you book one of these flights through Flight Centre before 13 June 2018 you'll also score a free Qantas Lounge invitation to use as part of your journey. See here for details.
If you're bringing the brood along and want to win them over, Flight Centre also has exclusive Disneyland specials that can save you 20% on tickets as well as accommodation and ticket combos for as little as $919 for 5-nights. You can see a full list of its Disneyland packages here. They're on sale until 6 July 2018.
