Cheap flights to Cairns - help??

Postby fisho mcspaz » Tue Sep 14, 2010 8:10 pm

My friend is getting married in Yungaburra, QLD and I'm trying to find a cheap flight for that weekend so I can go to the wedding. I'm looking for flights to Cairns leaving on the 9th October, coming back on the 11th. I am not very good with these cheap flight websites - too many hidden terms and conditions. Does anyone have any recommendations?

I use http://www.webjet.com.au for booking domestic flights.

Seems flying direct Adelaide to Cairns ain't very cheap! Cheapest carrier is Jetsar at ~$550 return.

use webjet to look at the cheapest options but don't book on there website they will charge about $30 more in taxes you don't need to pay. use them only to find the cheap flight and then go to the airlines website direct.

Domestic flights rules and conditions are easy once you have booked they are non refundable (you money is gone) and if you need to change expect to pay from $60-$200 to do so
