American Airlines has discounted several flights to Australia and New Zealand this winter — the perfect time to visit when it’s summer in the Southern Hemisphere.
“Together with Qantas, we offer you a seamless, more rewarding travel experience to Australia and New Zealand,” American shared on its website. “Explore Australia’s Outback and New Zealand’s Fiordland. Visit world-famous Sydney Opera House or iconic Hobbiton.”
The sale, which ends on Tuesday, May 28, has the following nonstop routes to Auckland and Brisbane up for grabs:
Los Angeles (LAX) to Auckland (AKL): $770
Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) to Auckland (AKL): $770
Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) to Brisbane (BNE): $970
The eligible sale flights will be operated by either American or Qantas and already include government taxes and fees in the ticket price. Travelers with American Airlines miles can also book these same flights for as low as 35,000 miles one-way or 70,000 miles round-trip.
Even better, there are plenty of available travel dates for later this year and into 2025, making this a great way for travelers to get to Australia or New Zealand on a budget. Sale flights to Auckland are available between January 28 and February 28, while flights to Brisbane can be booked for travel between October and December 4 and from January 28 to March 29.
However, other travel dates and routes are available at higher prices, according to American. For instance, travelers can also fly between Los Angeles (LAX) and Sydney (SYD) this fall for $1,054 or Dallas (DFW) and Sydney (SYD) for $1,485.
American Airlines operates a Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner to operate some of its longest flights, and its economy seats are configured in a 3-3-3 configuration. Travelers may have the opportunity to upgrade to premium economy seats or business class after booking, which can help make the 17-plus hour flight more comfortable.
