Passport waits have been endless, flight prices have been astronomical, but it’s official: 2023 is your year to travel. Mainly because Jetstar is having one of its wild Boxing Day flight sales featuring cheap flights to overseas (!) destinations (!).
Obviously if you choose to travel with Jetstar you are choosing to dance with the devil himself. Your flight may get cancelled at any given moment without so much as a warning or apology! But these are the lengths we go to in this economy to get cheap flights. So lower your armrest and get clicking — the flight sale ends at 11.59PM on December 27.

Sydney to Uluru from $99. Cheap flights for travel between 12 February 2023 and 27 March 2023.

As we said, this is just a mere taste of what is on offer in Jetstar’s cheap flights sale, so head to the site for more.
There’s still a huge wait time on international passports, so if you need a new one it’s best to get that application in at least six weeks before you head off on your cheap-ass holiday.
