Tips For Getting Cheap Flights!

Ok, so some of you might have gone to a travel agent and gotten quotes for flights in the thousand dollar range or more. This is ok, but you can get your flight for a lot cheaper if you book it yourself online.

There are three carriers who fly from Australia to Nadi:
1.Virgin Blue
2. Air Pacific
3. Qantas (which is pretty much Air Pacific)

The cheapest is Virgin Blue. You can book flights from any major city in Australia to Nadi with these three, however for an even cheaper flight you can book your own domestic flights with virgin blue or jetstar to Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane and take advantage of the even cheaper international flights from these destinations.

Here are two examples:

How to Get From Adelaide to Nadi Cheaply!
Book a one way domestic flight with Virgin Blue from Adelaide to Brisbane.

How to Get From Hobart to Nadi Cheaply!

REMEMBER! If you want to book your own flights this way, make sure you leave enough time for you to get from your domestic flight to your international flight to check-in. Check-in for international flights is usually 2 hours before. 

Go to the websites yourself to see what savings you can come up with!
