As the sixth-largest country on Earth, flights to Australia from other Australian cities can vary greatly. Flights between Sydney (SYD), New South Wales, and Melbourne (MEL), Victoria, may take as little as 1h 20min. You’ll usually also find plenty of cheap flights for this quick route, and it feels like barely any time has passed between take-off and landing. Similarly, flights between Sydney and Brisbane (BNE), Queensland, generally only take around 1h 30min. Meanwhile, flights between Hobart (HBA), Tasmania, and Darwin (DRW), Northern Territory, can take anywhere from 7h 35min to 15h 55min. Flights between Melbourne and Perth (PER), Western Australia, usually take between 3h 30min and 4h, while from Sydney, the flight time tends to be a little longer, with the average sitting between 4h and 5h.

Question 11

Can you get direct flights to Australia from other major cities in Australia?

Accepted Answer

Centrally located on the east coast, Sydney generally offers the more direct flight paths to destinations around the country, and you will find plenty of direct flights between Australia’s other capital cities – Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney, Perth, Adelaide (ADL), Canberra (CBR), Darwin and Hobart. If you're visiting a regional town in Australia, you’ll generally fly into the nearest capital city and then take a connecting flight to the smaller regional airport. For example, flights from Brisbane to Broome (BME) generally include a stop at Perth Airport before reaching their destination. Meanwhile, flights from Adelaide to Port Macquarie (PQQ), New South Wales, come with a stop in Sydney or Brisbane along the way. There are some notable exceptions. For example, if you're flying from Melbourne to Townsville (TSV), North Queensland, you’ll find plenty of direct airfares from Qantas, Jetstar and Virgin.

Question 12

What is the best way to travel around Australia?

Accepted Answer

Australia is a vast country, with many interesting cities and remote regions to explore. No matter how tiny or secluded the destination, you’ll usually find an airport not too far away. In addition to the major local airlines – Qantas, Jetstar, Virgin and Tigerair – you will find regional airlines like REX, Airnorth, QantasLink and others that fly to the smaller airports around the country. If you’ll be heading out to the smaller regional towns, car hire is advisable, as public transport usually won’t get you out to the waterfalls, beaches, mountains, valleys, rock formations and other natural wonders you likely want to see. Australia is famous for its many captivating road trips, with some of the most picturesque scenery to be found along the Great Ocean Road in Victoria, the Grand Pacific Drive in New South Wales and from Cairns to Cape York in Queensland. If you’ll be sticking to major cities like Sydney, Melbourne and the Gold Coast (OOL), you may wish to take advantage of the trains, buses, taxis and rideshare providers in these cities. In Melbourne and the Gold Coast, you can enjoy unique travel on the tram lines, while Brisbane offers the opportunity to travel via ferry on the winding Brisbane River.

Question 13

Does an Australian citizen need a passport or visa to fly domestically in Australia?

Accepted Answer

Australian citizens do not need to have a passport or visa to fly within Australia. Australian airlines generally do require that you have a government-issued form of ID, and you may use your passport if you wish. However, your driver’s licence or alternative state-issued photo ID card will be sufficient for all of your Australia flights. If you are not an Australian citizen, then you will need to have your passport for travel within Australia. You will also need to ensure you have the appropriate visa for the conditions of your stay.
