Find cheap flights to Sydney

Pros: Flight was on time The airplane was clean

Cons: This is the cheapest company I ever used. During the booking process they did not mention that they have a 7 kg limit on carry on items. This is not the case when you attempt to book a flight within Australia; clearly deceiving foreign travelers. In any case, I paid extra $24 to check in a (20 kg) bag. When arrived to the airport I voluntarily weighted the hand bag which was 8.2 kg. I explained that I am an international traveler with no mean of exactly weighing the bag. They insisted on checking in the extra bag and charged me additional $50 to do so. With those hidden fees, I ended up paying more for the flight than the competitors. During the flight, they offer nothing for free (not even water or coffee).

Pros: Early morning flight meant no delays. Walked straight on the flight and we were off. No fuss...

Cons: The flight announcements were loud and abrasive which woke everyone sleeping on the early morning flight. No doubt is was that particular cabin manager and not the norm.

Pros: On time arrival

Cons: Horror ale checking and baggage procedure

Pros: No super comfortable seat but yes great crew.

Pros: flight was fine

Cons: new Melbourne terminal was confusing, with inadequate Jetstar staff assistance for first-time users

Cons: Predatory baggage fees at the gate, not a good option for travelers.

Pros: Nothing

Cons: Boarding on tarmac in the rain, no cover over walkway. Smallest and tightest seating in the airline business.

Cons: They choose to weigh bags just as we were boarding and as I was 1kg , I had to check in my bag , but apparently it has to go on the next flight. So now I have to wait for 2.5 hers in Sydney for my bag and had to pay $50 for the inconvenience. I would expect this from Tiger not Jetstar

Pros: Overall, the flight from Avalon to Sydney was nice, so no complaints about anything else other than the luggage issue.

Cons: I did not realize my ticket did not include checked luggage, so I was charged to check my bag. I was also charged for "excess" luggage because my bag was over 15kg (because I had been traveling internationally, my bag was 20kg) so in total I had to pay $125 just to check my bag. I would have saved more money booking my flight through a major airline in the first place.

Pros: Easy check in, child's play room even though we are not parents, spacious lobby

Cons: No comment

Cons: On time

Pros: Exactly at time

Pros: flight was fine

Cons: new Melbourne terminal was confusing, with inadequate Jetstar staff assistance for first-time users

Pros: Flight was good.

Cons: Check is cthe confusing. First you cannot check in online. It was a domestic flight but check in was in international terminal. The lines were confusing and we had to change lines because of the confusion. There was no one to answer your querstions. I had to interrupt an check in person who was helping someone else so not to be late for flight.

Pros: quick boarding

Cons: there was an hour delay and we were not really told the reason.

Pros: Flight is cheaper than other airlines

Cons: Never be on time

Cons: They don’t offer refunds only vouchers. That robbery for anyone traveling internationally, they cannot use a voucher in a year

Pros: Early morning flight meant no delays. Walked straight on the flight and we were off. No fuss...

Cons: The flight announcements were loud and abrasive which woke everyone sleeping on the early morning flight. No doubt is was that particular cabin manager and not the norm.

Pros: The crew were not particularly friendly. They were somewhat abrupt.

Cons: The crew’s attitude to passengers and manner of communication. The flight was delayed by about 20 to 25 minutes but there were no announcements about it or apologies for the inconvenience.

Cons: Was charged 50$ at check in at airport for luggage. It was a carry on size they said it was over weight had flown with same items on several different airlines, Quantas, American, and virgin no one else stop me. If this is how they get the ticket cheap, just state that upfront. So I know and am not surprised at airport.

Pros: because I fly a lot in the US, I actually thought there was more space on the planes than we usually have here. I also don't mind not having food for free since we don't usually either. beverages would be nice, but since we were able to bring our own through security in Australia, it didn't bother me. Compared to most airlines in the US, it was great. Much more efficient as well. Even though we had to pay extra for luggage, there was tiered pricing by weight and it was still cheaper than most carriers in the US.

Pros: The plane is reasonably comfortable The tickets were cheap

Cons: Boarded late and the signs lied to the passengers saying the gate is closing Long walk to the boarding gate and no powerpoints in the gate Food is overpriced and mediocre

Pros: Reasonable flight, nice crew.

Cons: Ran to make flight but the gate closing message was a lie. They hadn't started boarding. Food was unattractive.

Cons: plane was half hour late leaving because JetStar does not allow enough time for turn arounds from plane arriving from elsewhere. That said, the pilot did do his best to catch up for lost time once in the air.

Pros: We arrived safely and on time.

Cons: The pricing seems low when purchasing the ticket, but we were charged $45/bag for our carryon bags that could easily have fit in the overhead bins (and on a separate flight with another airline that is what we did). Seems like a money grab to charge for the carryon if it weighs more than 7g or whatever small amount. Just take that cost into account when booking your flight.

Pros: Quick and easy flight

Cons: Plane was old and seats weren't the comfortable

Pros: Nice cabin crew, nice boarding, ontime departure, clean aircraft.

Cons: Check-in agent at bag drop counter was a sour puss.

Cons: Only one problem was the temperature was too warm during flight.

Pros: We did not use this flight and I was told that I could not receive a refund.

Pros: I like the service provided by the crew, they are amazing. And the flight was not full so I had 3 seats to myself!

Cons: I think you should serve healthier snacks: muffins are really a big amount of sugar and carbs that is not healthy!!

Pros: Our plane was delayed on the tarmac in Melbourne and we then missed our connecting flight to Mildura. Virgin could not organize another flight for us so we had to hire a car to drive to Mildura. We then had to cancel our flights Mildura to Melbourne Melbourne to Brisbane because we had to return the hire car to Melbourne. I had to book new flight from Melbourne to Brisbane and was told on Thursday when I cancelled our flights for Sunday that we could not get a refund. Unhappy about the entire experience. We were going to a funeral on Friday and to see my Mother on Saturday who is dying of cancer. We had to cut our stay with my mother short so we could drive 6 hours back to Melbourne to catch our plane on Sunday.

Pros: Flight attendants were very friendly and helpful.

Pros: Seats okay but would not recline

Cons: Our flight was delayed because of poor rostering due to one of the crew being out of hours and another crew member had to be brought from Brisbane to Sydney to join the flight. Not very professional in my eyes.

Pros: The crew was reasonably friendly

Cons: Be aware of baggage weight limits and hi bag fees. Limited drink options on plane.

Pros: Crew always happy and polite.

Cons: all travellers were polite this trip, which I’m sure was appreciated by the crew.

Pros: It is a short trip and it is easy to get on and off the flight without too much hassle. Except when it is raining as you have to walk from the terminal to the plane. No Food or Entertainment is provided as it is such a short flight

Pros: N/A

Cons: N/a

Pros: The efficiency of the process from boarding to disembarkation.

Cons: The flight was delayed, however I understand this happens in aviation.

Pros: Crew was friendly and was able to sleep on board relatively undisturbed

Cons: Flight gate was changed and we were not notified. No one could tell us where the new gate was. Directed to exit security only to have to go back through at the same terminal. Supposed to be seated together and was split from my wife. Bags were lost and didn't show up for 48 hours.

Pros: The crew was amazing

Pros: Just as same as what I expexted as a LCC.

Cons: Flight was delayed and additional baggage charge was non-refundable.

Cons: Long lines for bag drop

Pros: Ease of boarding and disembarking.

Pros: Seat 26A had a faulty back support, with protruding metal spring/wire.

Cons: Better maintenance

Pros: The jumbo-ness of the craft. I felt kind of like being on a cruise ship - which is good! The attendants were terrific.

Cons: Overhead light kind of spilled over to my neighbor's seat (me being in the outer aisle chair) even after being adjusted as much out as possible. Not a problem if my neighbor had one of those sleep masks...

Pros: Kind cabin crews

Cons: Be punctual

Pros: Great customer service

Pros: Everyone was super helpful and friendly.

Pros: On time. Early arrival.

Cons: Luggage policy needs work. READ THEIR WEBSITE FOR AN EXPLANATION OF THEIR BAGGAGE POLICY. It costs a lot more if you check baggage that exceeds their permitted allowances at the airport. 7kg limit for one bag. Special charges for a 2nd bag Older equipment. Functional but well used. No food unless paid for separately.

Pros: Crew always happy and polite.

Cons: all travellers were polite this trip, which I’m sure was appreciated by the crew.

Pros: It is a short trip and it is easy to get on and off the flight without too much hassle. Except when it is raining as you have to walk from the terminal to the plane. No Food or Entertainment is provided as it is such a short flight

Pros: I just enjoy Virgin as the crew are always nice

Cons: I find the seats a little uncomfortable. But it’s possible just me

Pros: The entire service is great I'd be happy to pay more for a flight with virgin then any other airline

Cons: Absolutely nothing!

Pros: Crew were lovely. Business class attendant was really nice.

Cons: Nothing. Great experience.

Pros: Left on time. Clean plane.

Cons: I don't like the music that plays before leaving. I would rather silence than music which doesn't suit everyone's taste. I find it irritating.

Pros: Crew were great and service was polite

Cons: Seats are a bit uncomfortable...need more lumbar support and not much leg room but plane was not crowded so it was ok for the four hour flight

Pros: Crew was good, seat was tight.

Cons: Was sitting next to a drunk guy, but was Ok, he slept most of the way. Police and paramedics met him at arrival. Caused some delays. Not Virgin's fault.

Pros: I got alive to my destination

Cons: Original flight was cancelled. Next flight was full. The flight I was booked on got delayed because it was raining heavy in Brisbane... No food or coffee was offered during the whole experience.

Pros: Crew was nice. Seats were ok. Paid for extra leg room but was not helpful. Wanted to upgrade to business class but they were not ready to negotiate. They had empty seats but wanted fill price. Their loss..

Cons: Better food choice. Sets more comfortable. Offer better price for upgrades.
