Do you need some quality time on a sun-soaked beach? Well now is the perfect time! 

Virgin Australia has launched their 72-hour flash sale where you can snap up a fare to the Sunshine Coast, Queensland from as low as $69*. 

The Sunshine Coast is calling with its pristine beaches, lush hinterland, delectable dining options, and thriving craft brewery scene. From Noosa to Coolum to Mooloolaba, no matter what kind of traveller you are, there's an experience tailored just for you. Whether you are looking for a slice of paradise where the winter is warmer or crave exploration, the Sunshine Coast has something for everyone.

Sunshine Coast Airport General Manager Aviation and Commercial Scott Norris said he was excited to partner with Virgin Australia on this incredible new sale. “We know the Sunshine Coast and Noosa are incredible holiday destinations and now is the perfect time for our southern friends to escape and experience a warmer winter,” Mr Norris said.

“There are multiple daily flights from the Sunshine Coast to Sydney and Melbourne with Virgin, providing travellers plenty of choice and flexibility when booking their holiday.”

Virgin Australia Chief Commercial Officer, Dave Emerson, said he expects the sale fares to sell out quickly as travellers from Melbourne and Sydney look north for a winter escape.

“With sale fares starting from just $69* one-way, this is the perfect opportunity for Australians to escape the winter chill and enjoy that beach holiday for a great value price”.

“The region has so much to offer from tranquil rainforests to pristine beaches, making the Sunshine Coast the perfect place for a holiday”. "We are incredibly focused on providing travellers great value and we don't expect these sale fares will last long," he said.

Visit Sunshine Coast CEO Matt Stoeckel said these hot fare prices make the Sunshine Coast a top spot for a winter getaway.
“Winter is a magical time on the Sunny Coast across the beaches and our hinterland. Our whale watching season kicks off from the 1st of June, and clear skies make it the perfect time to head to the hinterland and take in our sweeping views or challenge yourself with a climb up one of the Glass House Mountains,” Mr Stoeckel said. 

“Being known as Queensland’s Sunshine Pantry we also have fresh local produce year-round, plus unique farm stays and culinary experiences just waiting to be devoured. One not to be missed is our signature foodie event The Curated Plate in July/August that is sure to appeal to travellers from Sydney and Melbourne.”

Tourism Noosa CEO Sharon Raguse said: “As winter embraces our southern neighbours, Virgin Australia's 72-hour sale beckons travellers to trade frosty mornings for sun-drenched days on the Sunshine Coast.”  “With enticing one-way fares and seamless connections from major cities, now is the perfect time to seize the opportunity and embark on a journey to the warmth, relaxation and rejuvenation that awaits a holiday in Noosa! With many great accommodation deals on offer during the winter months, it truly is the perfect time to visit our beautiful region.”
