Help with Domestic booking
Hey all.. for the first time I don't have the luxury of a secretary making flight bookings for me so I'm a bit lost. I'm making a trip down to Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne (might throw in Hobart if time and finances allow), and I'm flying in from Singapore.
I have a couple of options, the best of which I reckon is to fly in on QF on an open-jaw to fly into Brisbane and out from Melbourne, or vice versa. I'm just wondering if it'll be cheaper to purchase the domestic flights together with the international leg, or to purchase it separately?
I'm a little anti-LCC so jetstar and virgin will be outta question, but if I have to I'll do it... anyone with any recommendations or suggestions?? I'm rather lost!!
