Domestic flight times in Australia
Australian driving times and distances can be really, really long. Hence most Australians travel around the country on domestic flights run by the likes of Qantas and Virgin Australia, rather than endure the hell of a long-distance bus journey with Greyhound or Premier Bus. Combine flights with tours, and you don’t need a hire car for an Australian holiday.
This page is an index for all the domestic flight routes covered on Australia Travel Questions. The flight time next to the route is the scheduled time from take off to landing provided by the airlines. When more than one airline flies the direct route, the quickest time has been used.
