While end dates for the Boxing Day flight sales differ per airline, it is likely they will conclude prior to the New Year, leaving you a small but very sweet window to book your flights for 2026 for less.

While the sale is yet to kick off on Boxing Day, the airline is expected to offer at least 10% off hotels and flight packages.
Some hotel deals have already gone live on the website, with plenty of luxury accommodation to choose from all around the globe for a fraction of the price.

Every year on Boxing Day, the booking platform offers a range of exciting deals on behalf of airlines like Qantas, Air Canada, Jetstar, Singapore Airlines, and Air New Zealand.
In 2024, deals included round-trip flights to London for under $1,300, Hawaii for under $500, Singapore for under $400, and the Sunshine Coast for under $100.
This year, early deals have already dropped on the website, including round-trips to the Gold Coast for under $80, New Zealand locations for under $500, and Bangkok for under $600.
Virgin Australia
As one of Australia’s most popular airlines, it comes as little surprise that Virgin will once again be offering scores of epic discounts across its flight network this Boxing Day.
How much of a bargain, you may ask? Well, more than half a million one-way flights have gone down to $49!
However, you have to act quickly as only a certain amount of discounted economy tickets will be available in the Boxing Day sale, so make sure to set a reminder on the day!
Etihad
Unlike other airlines, Abu Dhabi-based operator Etihad does not always offer flights as part of a Boxing Day sale promotion.
They do, however, host a New Year’s sale event, which has previously featured heavily discounted round-trip deals abroad.
If you want to book a holiday to Europe, there are $1,329 return fares on offer now!
