Jumping on the crazy cheap airfare bandwagon, I noticed return flights to Seoul were pretty cheap as well, and doesn't look like it has been posted about yet.

Similar date period - travel Feb/March 2017.

Melbourne (MEL) to Seoul$269
Adelaide (ADL) to Seoul $276
Brisbane (BNE) to Seoul $277
Darwin (DRW) to Seoul $284
Sydney (SYD) to Seoul $285
Perth (PER) to Seoul $285

Here is a selected $269 return example.

Happy travels.

Edit: Looks like fares are slowly getting ozbargained. Example fare has gone up to the staggering price of $294 this morning. Just jump on the iwtf search engine to see if the flight you want is still available.

Edit2: Most dates are being reported as gone. Still worth trying your luck through other flight search engines or the airline direct.

    Great find OP! I was wondering if anyone found deals for locations that are a bit warmer in Jan-Mar … all the deals so far have been very temping to visit again, and are absolute bargains at the moment!!

  • justcallmeboss on 08/11/2016 - 01:10

    niceeee

  • heyimsu on 08/11/2016 - 01:12

    Damn those layover times.. such a good price, not enough time ;_;

    • keithality on 08/11/2016 - 01:13

      Layover only seems to be 90min for flights from Perth which is not that bad? Haven't checked the other cities though.

      • heyimsu on 08/11/2016 - 01:15

        Ah, should of said departing Brisbane. Still such a good price.

  • Holysmoke on 08/11/2016 - 01:13

    Has anyone determined if these are error fares or not?

    Crazy deal. Would love to stay much longer in Singapore though (as a layover). Miss their local food :)

  • nightelves on 08/11/2016 - 01:24

    So are these considered full fare tickets or discounted tickets?

      Singapore airport is the best airport in the world, even with a 24hr cinema and 24hr foodcourts, there is plenty to do :) I had a 5hr stopover recently and it went 'too fast'!

        Same, had a 4hr stopover and nearly missed the plane because I was having too much fun, then had to sprint thru about 2 terminals…

  • blahbkahz on 08/11/2016 - 02:27

    Looks to be a pricing error. Tried to book and Expedia said that the price has been jacked up to 1.1k return from 283…

  • alpal05 on 08/11/2016 - 02:34

    253 through Singapore Airlines.. can you get cheap flights from seoul to tokyo?

    • Jugg.Judy on 08/11/2016 - 03:08

      Nope. I tried..300+ even though they are so close.

    • Mysterious Laptop on 08/11/2016 - 21:28

      thats such a good deal! but in terms of timing, I feel that 5 days is sort of a waste of the opportunity being so far away from home

    • get-innocuous on 08/11/2016 - 11:09
      +1

      The flight is codeshare, you're on the same plane either way. Plus VA is a full service airline (and VA international is actually quite nice).

      • Jugg.Judy on 08/11/2016 - 12:15

        But there must be some minor difference right? Othwise I just waste 10 bucks..

    • HardQuiz on 08/11/2016 - 12:28

      Issued by VA operated by SQ ?

    Amazing prices, always wanted to go to Korea!

    Never seen prices anywhere close to this, especially not with Singapore airlines! Looks like the flights might be full with ozbargainers in February ;)

  • unity1 on 08/11/2016 - 07:08

    Can this be used for cheap flights to Singapore by not actually making the Singapore to Seoul and then Seoul to Singapore legs of the trip or does your ticket get cancelled if you don't complete the whole journey

    • chansthename on 08/11/2016 - 13:01

      The latter, you'll have the return leg cancelled.

      • unity1 on 08/11/2016 - 13:14

        Thanks for your reply. Not a good idea then.

    • piggiepanda on 08/11/2016 - 10:07

      can i ask when booking via BYO jet… does it mention anywhere what the luggage allowance is? i just realized that after i booked my tix O.o

      I got virgin as my flight.

      • missyy on 08/11/2016 - 10:09

        yes, it's 23kg virgin airlines flight operated by singapore airlines

        • piggiepanda on 08/11/2016 - 10:11

          fiuh!!! was so hasty i didnt check the luggage allowance… Thanks :)

      • ozlab on 08/11/2016 - 10:17

        Virgin international will include luggage.

      • vtranh85 on 08/11/2016 - 16:19

        try retrieve your booking details on virgin website it will show you your baggage allowance. Mine said 30kg I suppose because the route is operated by Singapore Airline. Yay!

    • RainerWolfram on 08/11/2016 - 11:37

      To whom it may concern, have you received a booking confirmation email? I also booked through BYO, but no email yet. Warm Regards.

      EDIT: The upcoming flights have been ticketed and appear in my Velocity account. Eek! High likelihood of being honoured?

      it would cost extra. usually a fair bit extra (as in , these tickets are supercheap already so you'd probably pay the same amount again to have the stop over)

          @piggiepanda: agreed. terminal 2 has an awesome vegetarian restaurant . there is the butterfly enclosure and a few other things. you can always get a taxi into the city and look around for a few hours and back to the airport. (not a massive nor cost)

        Everland is quite far from Seoul but worth it. Just don't go on a national holiday.
