    Air Asia Mega Sale (Mauritius for ~$440 return)

    Perhaps not for everyone, but a ridiculous price! $230 for SYD-MRU and $213 MRU-SYD. Perth is about $90 cheaper. Not sure if this is an indication of really bad loads and perhaps the flights will be cancelled similar to the Bali flights, but perhaps worth a try. Also thought $300 oneway to...

    New York newish HoJo hotel in LIC - cancelable rate USD72 pn

    Agreed. I stayed at the Sleep Inn which is just across the road from the Howard Johnson in February for ~$60AUD for a room with 2 king beds and a city view. Breakfast is decent enough to keep you going for a few hours, so for me, nearly unbeatable value in NY.

    Loks like a great fare. Return leg available from all Etihad's US destinations as far as I can tell - DFW, SFO or LAX for a bit more mileage. Can be broken up with a free stopover in AUH each way too.

    Hey Sarah, I don't have much idea about the Velocity program, so not sure how you can get an extra 3000 points. But it looks like the Jetstar flight SIN-MEL that greenfish suggested has also gone up about $250. The Etihad fare I originally suggested is still available (MEL-MAN / (DUB or...
