WelcomeIf you are new to Poms In Oz and migrating to Australia or currently living in Australia feel free to say hi to all the other either in or moving to Oz.
Hi everyone,
Just wondering if anyone would know, I've been checking prices to go to Australia in July. I didnt know if it was best to book early, or to hold out and see if there are any deals.....i know that the deals on offer now end in june, but i need to fly in july
Not too sure about flights generally, only I do know that it's the big 6 week school summer hols in July, so they always put the prices up then. I would probably book in advance and shop around to see the best deal you can get. Our big school hols over here are in Dec and jan and they put the flights up here too.

I asked my friend, who's a travel agent with Thomas Cook, the same question. She recommended booking early via the net as fares will increase from March (due to an increase in tax). However we did need specific dates rather than being flexible.
We are going in September and booked direct with BA.COM saving about £800 on the travel agent prices!
Check out www.travelmood.com they always have some great deals going on, I always use them and have never found a better price :!:
:D x

We used Travelmood as after a lot of shopping around they still came up with the best price. Even tho' we booked one way flights, they still keep sending me email updates :roll: and one I recieved last week was a special offer with KOREAN AIRLINES, FOR EVERY TWO ADULTS A CHILD TRAVELLED FREE TO AUSTRALIA.
I don't know anything about the airline so can't recomend them BUT I would recomend Travelmood :!:
Good luck, Lesley
Hiya,
just been granted our visas and been told to use IOM Australia@IOM.INT
THESE GIVE SPEACIAL ONE WAY PRICES FOR IMMIGRANTS TO oz We were quoted a price of £ 1200 for four adults travelling in aug 2007. They also get you extra baggage allowance, you will be allowed 40kg per passenger
more airlines should do special one-way prices i reckon. do you know the website for the one-way specials or is it just the email add. to write to. thanks
