Before buying your ticket
Do not buy until your visa is approved
It is rule number one. Processing times vary, and a ticket purchased ahead of time can end up being rescheduled or lost entirely. If you need to prove a flight during the application, talk to us: there are ways to handle it without risking money.
Confirm your baggage allowance when booking
You are going away for a year or more, so luggage weighs as much as its price. Extra student kilograms do not always appear reflected in the confirmation: check them with the airline before flying, not at the counter. Excess baggage is extremely expensive.
Watch out for very tight layovers
On a trip of more than twenty hours, a one-hour layover is a gamble. If you lose your connection with checked baggage, the mess is considerable. Leave at least a two-hour margin, and if you can choose, a long layover lets you arrive feeling more intact.
Book in advance, but not too far in advance
For long-haul flights, the best rates are usually found between two and four months in advance. Buying a year ahead is usually not cheaper, and buying the week before is extremely expensive.
Arrive a few days before the semester starts
Jet lag with Australia is brutal, and on top of that, you need those days to activate your bank account, get a phone, and get your bearings. Landing the day before the first day of class is starting off on the wrong foot.
Frequently asked questions
Should I buy the flight before or after the visa?
Afterwards. Always wait until your visa is approved before buying. If in your specific case you need to prove a flight during the application, consult us and we will see how to resolve it.
Do I need a return ticket to enter Australia?
It depends on your visa and your situation. In some cases, you are asked to prove the ability to afford the return trip. Tell us about your case and we will tell you what is best to book.
Can I use the discount if I am over 30 years old?
These specific agreements are limited to those under 30. If you are over that age, write to us and we will look for other options.
How much luggage can I bring?
It varies by airline and fare. Student agreements include an expanded baggage allowance, but always confirm it in your specific reservation before packing.
