Cathay Pacific flight sale inc London to Sydney £529

What’s the deal?

Cathay Pacific is running a seat sale, with return flights to Sydney starting at a super-low £529 (the next cheapest is c. £600). There are also flights to
Adelaide for £529 and Auckland, New Zealand, from £534.

Flights depart from London Heathrow between 20 April and 11 June 09 and again between 1 and 30 November, 2009.

There is still good availability at the moment, but you’ll have to go quick; the sale ends 25 February, 2009.

How to find ‘em

The best place to look for the flights is
screenscraper Kayak. Enter your trip details and it’ll zip them to scores of normal airlines, including Cathay, to find the cheapest.

If you don’t mind when you fly, there’s a quick way to get an idea which dates are available. On the Kayak homepage, enter London to Sydney, then below to enter a date.

A box of ‘best fares’ should then appear on the right hand side. If you flick through the months, it should be clear which dates have
£529 flights. Just search for a flight leaving on that date, and hopefully the cheap fare will be available.

Also read the Cheap & Free Flights guide, for more bargain flight finding tips.
