American Airlines has round-trip flights from Houston (IAH) to Sydney (SYD) for $753 with a connection. Flights February to mid-June. Holiday blackouts apply. An Australian ETA (a visa) is required.

Note: Be sure to pay attention to the time/date change during travel.

Note: Flights in April, May, and June require a long 5-or-6-hour connection on the return flight. The February and March flights have better connections, under 2-hours.

Note: There was a similar sale on this airline for $824 last month with better connection times in April, May, and June. There is a pretty good chance the airline will automatically change your routing to something better when it gets closer to your departure date, however, there is no guarantee that this will happen. Alternatively, if the airline makes any changes to your itinerary, you can them call and get them to change your flights to something with better connection times.

  • Tips: Use Tripadvisor to create a Hotel “short list”. First, plug in your dates and destination. Then select “Sort by Traveler Ranked”. Finally, select the “Traveler Ranking” filter to show “only 4* and up”. Use this resulting “short list” of hotels to find the cheapest one with a high ranking.
  • Tips: Hotel rates for Weekend dates are usually higher than the rates for Sunday through Thursday. Tripadvisor has a color-coded date calendar, red when the average hotel price for that day is more expensive, green for less expensive. You can use this to get an overview of what dates in the month are at a discount.
  • Tips: Different booking websites will often have differing routes, prices, and availability. Before you finalize your purchase, do a quick check on BookingBuddy, Skyscanner, and Kayak to see if any other site or airline is offering a better deal.
