Qantas has cut its transtasman prices in a flash sale for Australia-bound Kiwis with seats as low as $219.
Starting today, Australia’s flag carrier will offer discounted fares to the five largest cities across the Tasman for 72 hours.
Flights leaving Auckland to destinations that Qantas has recently connected –Adelaide, South Australia, and Perth, Western Australia – have been included in the airline’s price slash.
However, flyers will have to pay full fare for the return leg, which is not included in the sale.
The cheapest fares start from $219 one-way for tickets from Auckland, Christchurch and Wellington to Melbourne.
Travellers can book flights from the same three New Zealand cities to Brisbane for a flat rate of $249, Sydney for $259 and Adelaide for $329.
Flights departing from Queenstown to Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane are also included in the sale, but at a higher price.

By stretching the wallet a bit more, travellers can book Premium Economy tickets during the three-day sale from Auckland to Brisbane and Sydney for $459 and $469 respectively.
