Counting down to our inaugural non-stop flight from Dallas/Fort Worth to Melbourne on 3 December 2022

We’re excited to offer three times weekly services from Dallas/Fort Worth in addition to our five times weekly services from Los Angeles to Melbourne.

Melbourne is home to endless one-of-a-kind experiences. From must see major sporting events to captivating cultural arts and institutions, it's a city of diversity, secret pockets, hidden laneways, world class dining and captivating Urban Indigenous experiences. Wander art-adorned laneways to discover epicurean delights, fine dining restaurants, alfresco cafés, to speakeasy bars and rooftop cocktails. There’s always something to discover in Melbourne. 

Venture outside the city limits and be inspired by the Great Ocean Road, one of Australia’s most iconic coastal drives. Natural experiences in Victoria reign supreme where you can witness an abundance of iconic wildlife in the wild. You’ll be in awe of this gateway to adventure as you explore spectacular landscapes, rolling vineyards, rugged mountain ranges to lush rainforests.
