Howdy everyone,

I'm looking to get the cheapest flights i can to fly to melbourne for a long weekend coming up in March. I didn't know where else to go to ask so i figured i may aswell throw this up on here.

Does anyone have any tips.. i want them reasonabley cheap. For me to leave on a friday and come back monday at the moment is pretty dear because i want a friday night and later on the monday.

I think my best bet is happy hour on virgin blue? Anyone got any information.. i know nothing to be honest lol

Thanks!

Virgin Blue can be cheap, sometimes charging $120 return.. just book as early as possible to get cheapest flights.

Avalon isn't gonna help because i want Melbourne Airport. I know it's going to be pretty dear because it's a long weekend, and i want to fly out on the friday night and come back the monday night.

Oh well.. will wait for happy hour tommorow.
