Great article in the latest Budget Travel blog (and no, not just because I’m quoted!) – all about cheap flights to Australia.

How cheap? Well until just recently, airfares to Australia were basically in free-fall:

“The prices in the spring and fall were the cheapest I have seen in 5 years of closely tracking airfare trends; they have firmed up lately but are still pretty good compared to the past half decade.” -Rick Seaney, Budget Travel

How to find cheap flights to Australia from your airport? Easy. Just go to FareCompare’s deal finder – when asked, “Where do you want to go?” just click on Australasia. Every city you’ve ever dreamed of visiting will pop up with the best prices – and you can also see the cities and prices on a map!

The only thing I can add is, have a wonderful time.
