Direct links to Australian airlines including Qantas, Virgin Australia, Jetstar, and Rex, plus major international carriers flying to and from Australia, all CASA-regulated.

Australian domestic airlines are led by Qantas and its low-cost subsidiary Jetstar, alongside Virgin Australia. Regional Express (Rex) serves regional and interstate routes and expanded to capital cities in 2021. Bonza operated budget regional services before ceasing operations in 2024.

International airlines serving Australia include Air New Zealand, Singapore Airlines, Emirates, Cathay Pacific, and United, flying into Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Perth. Many offer direct booking with fare calendar tools and loyalty programs.
