Qantas<\/a> has launched a massive sale on seats to seven of its North American<\/a> destinations from today.<\/p>\n

The Flying Kangaroo’s<\/a> week-long sale will include destinations such as Los Angeles<\/a>, New York, Vancouver, Toronto, Honolulu, and its world-first nonstop Sydney-to-Las Vegas flight.<\/p>\n

That route will take to the skies for the first time on December 29 and will save five hours in the air.<\/p>\n

Aussies will be able to snap up return tickets to Sin City from $1,249 if they’re travelling on select dates between January 19 and February 16.<\/p>\n

If Australians were to fly to Las Vegas in the first week of October, it would mean a 2.5-hour layover and cost $1,570 with Qantas.<\/p>\n

However, it could set you back anywhere between $1,572 to $2,756 with other airlines, with layovers lasting anywhere up to 90 minutes to 21 hours.<\/p>\n

“Las Vegas has been one of the most talked-about additions to our network in years, and this sale gives customers the chance to lock in a seat on the only nonstop flight between Australia and the entertainment capital of the world,” said Cam Wallace, Qantas International’s CEO.<\/p>\n

“This sale also includes discounted fares across every North American destination we fly to\u2026 so whether it’s a week in Waikiki, skiing in Whistler, New York over Thanksgiving, or\u00a0a few days on the Strip, there’s something here for every kind of traveller.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

For other destinations in the sale, economy fares start from $939 from Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne to Honolulu.<\/p>\n
