Bookings are opening for flights up to late October 2023. 

Bonza Chief Commercial Officer Carly Povey said “the wait is over! 2023 is the Year for Allstralia (Australia) with low-cost air travel to many holiday spots, some of which are relatively undiscovered. It’s time to see more of your own backyard for less.

“We’re delighted to be delivering on our commitment to make air travel more accessible. We promised choice and better connectivity to the regions for less and we’ve been beyond delighted with the support for our mission. 

“Today we start making travel a possibility for the many, not the few. Forget connecting flights or your bum going numb in the car, Bonza is here to take Aussies from A to B without the C (cost and complexity)”.

Bonza says that travellers who have already downloaded the app, should delete and reinstall the latest version to have the ability to book flights.

Some of the one-way fares from the Sunshine Coast are:

Albury A$69, Avalon A$79, Carins A$79, Rockhampton A$49 and Whitsunday Coast A$59.

“It’s important that Aussie travellers know we’re on sale, not having a sale. We’re committed to low cost fares which will in turn, stimulate new markets for Australia’s domestic tourism industry. We’re confident whenever customers choose to travel, all our fares and not just our starting fares will represent great value,” added Povey. 

Routes from Bonza’s second base at Melbourne Airport are expected to go on sale in a matter of weeks.
