Treat yourself to a $19 getaway to this top Aussie tourist destination
- Replies 8
Many of us have been feeling the financial pinch lately, especially given the current cost-of-living crisis. But you can still treat yourself to a quick holiday without breaking the bank!
If you've been meaning to visit the heart of Australia but have been putting it off because of the cost of flights, then this sale from Webjet might be just what you need.
What better way to kick off the new year than by taking a trip to one of Australia's most popular destinations?
Travel giant Webjet is running a massive sale on regional flights to the Northern Territory's Alice Springs and Uluru. From January 16 to April 5, the travel site is offering up to $150 off flights to the Northern Territory – that's $19 one-way!
Now you can experience some of the country's most beautiful local landscapes and sights at pretty incredible prices.
The Northern Territory is often at the top of 'must-travel' lists thanks to its cultural and spiritual history, unique landscape, and natural beauty.
The limited-time sale is only available until the April 5th deadline or until tickets are sold out. The discount is applicable across all airlines as long as you book via Webjet.com
The announcement of this sale comes after a new low-cost Aussie airline, Bonza, was given the green light to officially take off. Their flights are expected to begin in late January to early February, with the airline promising that the fares will start from about $50 ‘for every hour that you fly’.
This makes Bonza the first new major airline in Australia since Tiger Airways launched more than 15 years ago. You can read more on that here.
Have you ever wondered if low-cost airfare promos are sustainable for airline companies? The short answer is… sometimes.
Barring the effects of the pandemic, low-cost carriers (or LLCs) have created more travellers by becoming more affordable and offering more destinations. So, LLCs have built a bridge to air travel – which was once a luxury only the rich and famous could afford. More travellers mean more income for airline companies.
Additionally, less ‘mainstream’ routes let airlines (like Bonza) reduce expenses like airport tax. With these reduced prices, LLCs can offer more competitive pricing compared to major carriers. For travellers, purchasing flight tickets with additional discounts saves the customer as much as 80 per cent per flight.
Lower flight costs are also beneficial for tourism, as it guarantees a high influx of travellers to popular tourist destinations, especially during peak seasons.
As things are starting to go back to normal, it seems that low-cost travelling is picking up again, and is likely to continue to thrive in the future.
