“There has never been a better time to discover what makes the Territory truly incomparable,” said Suzana Bishop, Tourism and Events NT CEO.
“We’re excited to partner with Virgin Australia on such a fantastic sale, providing Australians with the perfect opportunity to escape the winter by swimming in hot springs in Katherine or Mataranka, or enjoy the colours of summer in the spectacular West MacDonnell Ranges near Alice Springs.”
The sale also coincides with some of the Territory’s biggest and most-loved events – including the upcoming season of the Million Dollar Fish Competition and the MXGP of Australia.
In the Top End, Darwin Festival runs across most of August with 400+ performances while the month also boasts the Darwin Aboriginal Art Fair, National Indigenous Fashion Awards and Country to Couture, and one of the richest art competitions in the country, the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island Art Awards.
In the Red Centre, travellers taking advantage of the flight sale can experience events like Red CentreNATS and Desert Mob, a major showcase for contemporary Aboriginal art, presenting hundreds of artists from desert art centres.
Libby Minogue, Virgin Australia Chief Marketing and Customer Operations Officer, said the flash sale gives travellers the perfect opportunity to experience a destination that’s truly like no other.
“We’re thrilled to announce our flash sale today, making it even easier for Australians to access the Northern Territory and experience everything this incredible part of the country has to offer,” Ms Minogue said.
“With fares starting from just $145 one-way to some of the Territory’s most iconic destinations, there has never been a better time to book a trip and discover the Territory’s incredible landscapes, culture and adventure.”
