Virgin Australia has kicked off winter with a bang—and it’s echoing to the spiritual heart of the nation. In a move that would make even the budget-conscious traveller shed a tear of joy, Virgin has launched a 72-hour flash sale to the iconic red plains of Uluru, with one-way fares starting at a staggering *$99. Yes, you read that right—ninety-nine bucks to the big rock.

For Australians chasing meaning over mayhem, this sale isn’t just another cheap flight—it’s an invitation to reconnect with country, culture and self. And in true Virgin fashion, you’ll earn Velocity Points and Status Credits along the way^—because spiritual enlightenment shouldn’t cost you frequent flyer status.

The Offer That Rocks

Available now until 11:59 pm AEST Wednesday 4 June 2025, this limited-time offer is valid for travel between 22 July 2025 and 26 March 2026 (unless the seats vanish faster than you can say “Qantas who?”).

Highlights of the Economy Lite sale fares include:

*Brisbane <> Uluru from $99
Melbourne <> Uluru from $99*
Adelaide (via Melbourne) <> Uluru from $199*
Hobart (via Melbourne) <> Uluru from $199*
Gold Coast (via Melbourne) <> Uluru from $199*
Sydney (via Brisbane/Melbourne) <> Uluru from $199*
Cairns (via Brisbane) <> Uluru from $209*
Perth (via Brisbane/Melbourne) <> Uluru from $349***

If you’ve ever muttered “one day I’ll go,” this is that day tapping you on the shoulder and whispering, “Now.”

More Than a Flight—It’s a Journey of Meaning

A flight to Uluru, nestled deep in the Northern Territory, is not just a holiday—it’s a rite of passage. From the magenta sunrises that bathe the sandstone monolith in ethereal light, to guided walks with Indigenous custodians who share stories etched into the land, Uluru leaves its mark on more than your camera roll.

And as night falls, this sacred site transforms into a celestial theatre, offering dinners under the stars and silence so profound, you can almost hear time standing still.

For those seeking reflection, connection, or simply an escape from inboxes and endless group chats, this journey will resonate long after the boarding pass fades.

Frequent Flyers, Rejoice

Velocity Frequent Flyer members aren’t left out of the magic. Even on sale fares, travellers can earn Velocity Points and Status Credits^, nudging them closer to Platinum status or that long-dreamed-of upgrade. If you haven’t joined Velocity yet, it’s free—and frankly, it’d be rude not to.

Book Now or Forever Hold Your Peace

Whether you’re travelling solo to soul-search, taking the kids on an outback adventure, or planning a romantic desert proposal (Uluru does have a way of turning even the most hardened cynic into a poet), this sale makes it ridiculously affordable.

So, what’s stopping you? A $99 flight to a UNESCO World Heritage Site that’s older than most of Earth’s continents and far more photogenic. Don’t delay—these seats will vanish faster than you can say “do I need a checked bag?”

Visit Virgin Australia and book your Uluru pilgrimage before 11:59 pm AEST, Wednesday 4 June 2025. Your red dirt redemption awaits.
