QATAR Airways has a deal with Helloworld offering flights to London, Barcelona, Milan and more from $1,755pp. The sale ends on April 20.
EMIRATES, it seems, also offers special fares to celebrate 25 years of flying to Sydney. I can’t imagine there will be any great discount, but contact iFLY for more details. Hang on to your boarding pass in Dubai – it unlocks savings at hundreds of venues.

Remember, conditions always apply to these specials. Check airline prices from your capital city. I recommend you use a travel agent, and travel insurance is essential. Finally, I make mistakes like all of us. Check websites to confirm details.
