But you have only a few hours to snap up a bargain, with the sale set to end at midnight tonight.
The new route, which will have a four-weekly direct flight timetable, will run in addition to the current path between Sydney and Hamilton Island.
Australia’s domestic aviation industry has been decimated amid ongoing borders closures in response to COVID-19 outbreaks across the country.
Following the Northern Beaches outbreak and subsequent border closures between the state of NSW and Queensland, Jetstar and Qantas were forced to cancel hundreds of flights out of Sydney.

About half of Jetstar’s cancellations, which were between December 24 until at least January 8, were out of Sydney to Queensland leisure destinations including Hamilton Island, the Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast and the Whitsunday Coast.
Queensland still has border restrictions in place with NSW. While most Australian residents can travel freely to Queensland, those who have been in a COVID-19 hotspot or in any part of New South Wales are restricted.
Border passes are required for anyone entering Queensland from New South Wales.
