Wow! Great air fares. For those that enjoy train travel as I do, if air fares stay this low this may be your last chance to ride the train. Long distance passenger train service has already been cut considerably in Australia the past 15 years. When I lived in Melbourne in 1991 there was still a classic stainless steel train to Sydney with a full diner, a lounge and 6 or more sleepers. It is now an XPT with one sleeper. With airfares this low there may be no train in the future.
