[FARE GONE] United – About $1,100: Atlanta / Detroit / Minneapolis – Sydney / Melbourne, Australia. Roundtrip, including all Taxes

United is attacking Delta’s fares to Sydney and Melbourne for about $1,100. Will not last. Australia is VERY expensive to fly to — even on sales, its normally over $1,500.

American citizens do need a visa to visit Australia. It is electronic and can be applied online — but you need it before travel. They will NOT let you board your flight without it.

Update 12/29/2015 @ 2:30AM Eastern – fare gone
