787 ZA001 air to airIn an unprecedented move, Rex today announced a raft of sale fares with no Christmas holiday blackout dates to celebrate the re-opening of its domestic network from November 15.

  • Sydney-Melbourne flights resume
  • No sale blackout dates,
  • Melbourne-Canberra and Sydney-Canberra services re-commence
  • Sydney-Port Macquarie and Sydney-Coffs Harbour re-launched
  • NSW regional flights to ramp up
  • Gold Coast flights from Sydney and Melbourne to restart on December 17

The domestic network-wide sale with no Christmas blackout period also extends to regional holiday destinations as the airline ramps up NSW intrastate flying.
Flights from Melbourne to Sydney or Canberra will be on sale at $69 and are on sale until November 14 for travel up to April 30, 2022.
Rex will also restart Sydney-Canberra, Sydney-Port Macquarie and Sydney-Coffs Harbour, initially with three daily return flights and fares from $99 one-way. Again, there are no blackout restrictions.
The $99 fare with no blackout dates is also available from Sydney to a range of NSW regional centers including Albury, Armidale, Dubbo, Griffith, Orange, Merimbula, Moruya, and Wagga Wagga.
Flights to the Gold Coast from Sydney and Melbourne will restart on December 17.
“Rex’s decision not to black out school holidays across our network is unprecedented and I would urge travelers to book without delay as these sale fares will undoubtedly sell out quickly,” Rex Deputy Chairperson, the Hon John Sharp AM, said.
“The resumption of our flights will provide a much-needed boost to the capital city and regional economies alike, help re-connect friends and families and allow Christmas holidays to be booked with confidence,” Mr. Sharp said.
“I have no doubt our competitors will rush to copy our ground-breaking initiative as Rex will once again have triggered a seismic change in the aviation industry which will benefit hundreds of thousands of passengers.
“Rex passengers can book with absolute confidence because our unique Refund Guarantee policy protects them against any COVID-related disruptions.
“And they know all Rex front-line staff, including our pilots and flights attendants, are fully vaccinated, which gives them even greater peace of mind,” Mr. Sharp said.
Rex is a full-service airline and all fares on our domestic jet network include free 23kg check-in baggage and refreshments on board delivered without signature country-style hospitality.
