I can’t see anything comparable to some of the really super deals that broke cover around about this time last year, but it’s at least a little encouraging that some promotions are bubbling up again after the last few weeks of not-a-lot. Cathay have just emailed:

Adelaide From GBP689

Auckland From GBP629

Brisbane From GBP629

Cairns From GBP689

Melbourne From GBP619

Perth From GBP599

Sydney From GBP629

And in Business:

http://bit.ly/9K0AHX

Adelaide From GBP3,109

Auckland From GBP3,029

Brisbane From GBP3,119

Cairns From GBP3,109

Melbourne From GBP3,119

Perth From GBP2,999

Sydney From GBP3,119

If you don’t mind an extra sector, and a non-horizontal bed to Asia (usually) then Finnair is still a cheaper option for J-class at the moment, but some will value the benefits of Cathay exUK.

Note that there may be a few pounds more to be saved on these fares by booking with an agent/consolidator. Cathay don’t charge a card fee per se, but they can still end up being a touch more expensive than folks who do, like netflights.com.

All the Ts&Cs are on the CX site at the above links; Y-class to be booked by 21 April, J-class by 30 April. Availability seems OK.

Cathay fares on their website are now back up to the usual c£1000 for a UK-Oz in Economy.

However, Opodo have just emailed advertising Cathay fares exclusive to them which broadly mirror the ones above:

Melbourne £635 http://bit.ly/9u2qi6

Auckland £636 http://bit.ly/dn3LJ7

Sydney £646 http://bit.ly/b80uGL

Book by June 5 for outbound travel May 28 to June 15; Sep 1 to Sep 30 and Nov 1 to Nov 30.

Do remember that Opodo charge a credit card fee.

The correct taxes and charges will be calculated and displayed before you confirm your purchase.
