During the month of August you can fly non-stop from Los Angeles to Sydney (Australia) for $670 round-trip.

This flight is available on V Australia. Additional cities such as Melbourne and Brisbane are below $700 as well.

These low rates are available for most of August. For September travel, flights cost slightly more and from October on, they jump significantly. So, to maximize savings to Australia, August and September are your best months to travel in 2010.

Delta Airlines is offering $661 fares from Los Angeles (LAX) to Sydney, Australia (SYD) for late April through September travel.

The same rules apply for travel to Melbourne (MEL).

Travel from San Francisco (SFO) to Australia is little pricier, however we are seeing limited tickets to Sydney for below $700. SFO to MEL is up in the $800 range.

We have no “Down Under” cliches or pictures of the Sydney Opera House for you, just a “blasphemously low” deal. Yes, fly on United Airlines from LAX (or SFO) to Sydney (or Melbourne) for $656 round-trip. It’s slightly more from New York, Chicago and Seattle. OK..here‘s a picture of the Sydney Opera House.

We are in the middle of an era of “bottoming out” of international fares from The States. When the economy improves in the next several years, we will reflect on these low prices and be glad we took advantage of them, or regretful we didnt. Seize the moment!

Historically, fares from Los Angeles to Australia were just under the $1,000 mark, and slightly over from the Midwest and East Coast. So, when we see $656 for LAX to SYD, we get giddy.

This deal is good for outbound travel through September 21, 2009. See complete terms.
