Top Skyscanner deals
Skyscanner has a reputation for steering travellers to the best-value flights around.
However, between Black Friday (29 November 2024) and Cyber Monday (2 December 2024) the flight, hotels and car comparison site showcases even lower flight prices.
Check 'em all out below.
Latest Skyscanner's Black Friday and Cyber Weekend deals
Frequently asked questions about Skyscanner's Black Friday deals
What can we expect from Skyscanner's Black Friday deals?
With Australia's borders wide open and international travel back, we're expecting big discounts on overseas trips.
Some of the deals we're already seeing include:
- $129 flights along Australia's East Coast on Qantas
- $39 flights around Australia on Jetstar
- $249 one-way flights to Asia on AirAsia
- $400 off Business Class to Japan and South Korea on Cathay Pacific
How do Skyscanner's deals compare to other brands?
As Skyscanner is an aggregator and not a travel agent, its deals can come from anywhere.
For example, those mentioned above are from Jetstar.
What's handy is that Skyscanner does the work for you. It trawls through all the sites – even ones you've never heard of – to nab you the best price.
Because of this, the deals available on Skyscanner are only as good as the brands it features.
Where you might find better is with brands Skyscanner doesn't work directly with, like Cebu Pacific.
While Skyscanner's search pulls up Cebu Pacific's flights they always lead to other booking sites such as Trip.com or Kiwi.com. In these instances you may find booking direct gives you a better deal.
Are Black Friday deals really cheaper?
As one of the biggest sales events on the calendar, Black Friday (29 November) and Cyber Monday (2 December) are when many airlines offer big savings.
In 2022 we saw:
- $73 return flights to Tasmania
- $210 return flights to Bali
- $277 return flights to New Zealand
- $326 return flights to India
- $357 return flights to Thailand
- $507 return flights to Hawaii
- $702 return flights to Germany
In 2021 we saw:
- Domestic flights from $120 return (Sydney-Gold Coast on Jetstar)
- International flights from $2,056 return (Brisbane to Johannesburg on Singapore Airlines and Qatar Airways)
In 2020 we saw:
- Domestic flights from $39 each way on Jetstar
- International flights from $115 each way on Jetstar
- Virgin Australia flights to the USA from $899 return
While Skyscanner's deals are cheap they might not be the cheapest you'll see in the year. Not all airlines participate in Black Friday, either. For example Qatar and Scoot have been known to opt out of offering a specific Black Friday sale and instead run their own sales over Black Friday.
Do flights get cheaper on Cyber Monday?
Unlike online retailers, airlines don't often change their deals daily. They're more prone to offer their sale on Black Friday only or extend it from Friday until Cyber Monday. With this in mind, prices will likely increase by Cyber Monday as the availability of the lowest fares decreases.
As a general rule of thumb, if you're after the cheapest price, the earlier you book the better.
