Jet-set for less: Virgin's first flight sale of the year has unbelievable fares!

Virgin Australia is kicking off the new year with a bang, launching a massive January flight sale that is sure to have travel enthusiasts and bargain hunters alike scrambling for their credit cards.

With a staggering half a million seats up for grabs at prices as low as $49, this sale promises to make your travel dreams come true without breaking the bank.



To inspire Australians to swap their work meetings for beachside lounging, mountain hiking, or city exploring, Virgin Australia has made hundreds of thousands of domestic and international seats available for travel between January 29 and late November.

This sale is not just about great prices but also great timing, offering Aussies the chance to plan their getaways throughout the year.

The most affordable flight on offer is a one-way economy lite trip from Sydney to Ballina (Byron Bay), with a price tag of $49.

For those looking to venture further afield, international return flights are also part of the sale. You can jet off from Brisbane to Port Vila, Vanuatu, starting at $419, or escape from Sydney to Denpasar, Bali, from $549.

These prices make exotic overseas adventures more accessible than ever.



Virgin Australia has positioned this sale as the perfect solution for those Aussies who find themselves needing a 'holiday after the holidays'. After the whirlwind of the festive season, who wouldn't want to unwind with a well-deserved break?

The sale runs until 11:59 pm on 22 January, and all sale fares include frequent flyer points and status credits.

This means that not only can you secure a fantastic deal on your next trip, but you can also boost your Velocity Frequent Flyer balance in the process.

Here's a snapshot of the domestic one-way and international fares on sale:

After all, isn't the anticipation of travel part of the fun?

I live in Perth and noticed that out of 23 domestic flights, only two listed Perth (Perth to Broome and Perth to Melbourne). Out of 10 International flights, there were none from Perth. Come on Virgin, Perth deserves better service.

Pam it says Melbourne to Perth so you might not be able to get to Melbourne. You might be able to get back only. You might have to walk there or take another airline:unsure:
 
Adelaide doesn't feature highly in this sale. Seems there are no one-way fares out of Adelaide!
