How much is a flight from Melbourne to Perth?
The cost of a flight from Melbourne to Perth depends on the date, the time of day, the carrier, the fare class and how far ahead you book. Airlines sell seats in tiers that rise as the plane fills, so the same seat can cost several times more on a holiday weekend than on a quiet Tuesday. That is why Haqqi Tours does not print a price on this page: we verify the live fares for your exact date across every airline on the route and send you the real cost by WhatsApp, with the options side by side.
Ask us for two or three options and we send the cost of each - for example the cheapest fare with hand luggage only, the same flight with a checked bag, and the best-timed departure of the day - so the comparison is in front of you before you book.
Cheapest flight from Melbourne to Perth: how to pay less
A cheap Melbourne to Perth flight ticket is rarely luck. It is the right airline, the right day and the right fare class - which is what we look up for you:
- Book both directions together when a return fare is cheaper than two singles, which we verify
- Ask about infant and child fares and about group bookings for four or more
- Book early - low fare tiers open months ahead and sell first, especially for holidays
- Fly mid-week - Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday departures are generally cheaper than Friday, Sunday and Monday
- Consider early-morning and late-evening departures, which frequently carry the lowest fares
- Let us know if your dates are flexible - moving by a day can change the fare a lot
When you fill in the form, mention if you can move your dates. We scan the fares around them and send the cheapest Melbourne to Perth flight first, then the alternatives.
How to book flights from Melbourne to Perth with Haqqi Tours

Fill out the form above with your date, whether you want a one-way or a return, how many adults and children are flying and the class you prefer. Our staff then messages you on WhatsApp to check your booking: we confirm the flights available that day, the airline, the baggage included and the cost. You choose, we book, and the electronic ticket arrives in the same chat.
- Step 1 - send the form: date, one-way or return, adults and children, class
- Step 2 - we message you in the WhatsApp chat with the flights, the baggage included and the cost
- Step 3 - you confirm the flight you prefer and we arrange payment in the same chat

Because a person books it, we can do what a booking site does not: seat a family together, choose the fare with the right bag, add an infant correctly, line up the Melbourne to Perth flight with a transfer from your hotel to Melbourne Airport (Tullamarine) (MEL) and a driver waiting at Perth Airport (PER).
Airlines flying from Melbourne to Perth
On the flight from Melbourne to Perth you can choose between Qantas, Jetstar and Virgin Australia. A full-service airline normally includes a checked bag, a meal and a flexible ticket; a low-cost fare is cheaper at the start and adds those items one by one. We provide both and tell you the total for the way you actually travel.
- Qantas - Melbourne to Perth
- Jetstar - Melbourne to Perth
- Virgin Australia - Melbourne to Perth
Departure: Melbourne Airport (Tullamarine) (MEL)
Flights from Melbourne to Perth leave from Melbourne Airport (Tullamarine) (MEL), serving Melbourne - melbourne is Australia's coffee, art and sport capital, with laneways and the Great Ocean Road nearby. Plan to be at the airport about two hours before an international departure and ninety minutes before a domestic one; earlier at peak times. Online check-in opens 24 to 48 hours before and we send the link with your ticket. Getting to the airport: There is no train from the airport at present, and coaches run to Southern Cross Station in about 30 to 40 minutes, which suits a central hotel with light luggage; a private car is simpler for a late arrival, a family with luggage, a hotel away from the coach stops, a cruise transfer or a long trip to the Great Ocean Road, Phillip Island or the Yarra Valley.
- Keep the passport or ID used for booking with the e-ticket - names must match exactly
- Check the baggage included in your fare - we tell you before you book
- Haqqi Tours provides a private transfer from your hotel in Melbourne to Melbourne Airport (Tullamarine)
- Let us know about the terminal and fast-track options at Melbourne Airport (Tullamarine)
Arrival: Perth Airport (PER) and getting into Perth
Arrival is at Perth Airport (PER), and the first decision is how to reach the city. Perth is the sunny capital of Western Australia with Kings Park, city beaches and Rottnest Island nearby. We provide airport transfers in Perth with a driver at arrivals, and we also tell you honestly if the train or metro from the airport is the better choice for where you are staying.
Onward flights or trains from Perth the same day can be added to the booking; tell us and we choose a Melbourne to Perth departure that leaves a safe connection.
Baggage, seats and classes on the Melbourne to Perth flight
Baggage is the item that most frequently changes the real cost of a flight from Melbourne to Perth. Full-service fares usually include a checked bag and a cabin bag; low-cost fares start with a small cabin bag and add the rest. We tell you the allowance of the fare we send, and whether adding a suitcase at booking is cheaper than at the airport (it almost always is). Seats can be selected on most airlines for a fee or free at check-in; in economy and business the differences are space, meals and flexibility.
- Cabin bag on every fare; checked bag included on full-service fares, optional on low-cost ones
- Adding baggage at booking is cheaper than at the airport - we add it for you
- Seat selection free or paid depending on the carrier; families seated together on request
- Infants under two travel on a lap at a reduced fare; children have their own seat and fare
Flying with children, families and groups from Melbourne to Perth
Three things to know about the flight from Melbourne to Perth with children: infants under two fly on a lap, children get their own seat and typically a lower fare, and a folding pushchair goes free. Groups get seats together and, on many airlines, a group rate. Let us know the numbers and we handle the rest, including the transfer with enough room for everyone.
Things to do in Perth when you land
Perth is the sunny capital of Western Australia with Kings Park, city beaches and Rottnest Island nearby. Start with Margaret River region, Kings Park and Botanic Garden and Elizabeth Quay and the Bell Tower, then Fremantle Prison and markets and Cottesloe Beach at sunset. A tip from our desk: Perth Airport has Terminals 1 and 2 on the eastern side and Terminals 3 and 4 on the western side, several kilometres apart; tell the driver your terminal, and remember Perth is very spread out, so day trips to Margaret River or the Pinnacles take three hours each way.
If you want the days in Perth organised - a driver, a guide, timed entry tickets - we do that too. Mention it through WhatsApp.
Best time to fly from Melbourne to Perth
September to November and March to May are pleasant; December to February is hot, dry and bright, with the afternoon sea breeze known as the Fremantle Doctor; June to August is cooler with rain, and the freeways are slow at weekday peaks. For the fare itself, the cheapest flights from Melbourne to Perth are found outside school holidays and major events, on mid-week days, booked early. Peak weeks sell out first and cost most; shoulder months give the best mix of weather, availability and price.
Return flight from Perth to Melbourne
The Perth to Melbourne flight is the same route in reverse, about 3 hours 45 minutes. Haqqi Tours can provide the return ticket in the same conversation; if you are not yet sure of the return date, we can book a flexible outbound or wait, and explain which is cheaper.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers to what travellers ask us most, before they book.
What is the difference between economy and business class?
Space, food and flexibility: business class adds a bigger seat, a meal, lounge access and priority boarding, and usually a more flexible ticket. We send the cost of both so you can decide.
Can I choose my seat?
Normally yes - free at check-in on most airlines, or for a small charge at booking. Say what you prefer when we message you and we add it.
Do children and infants need a ticket?
Infants under two travel on a lap at a reduced fare; children two and over need a seat and generally pay a child fare. Give the ages on the form and we apply the right fares and seat the family together.
Can I book a return flight from Perth to Melbourne?
Of course. Tick "return" on the form with the date you come back; we compare a round-trip fare against two one-ways and book the cheaper one. Not sure of the return yet? We spell out the flexible options.
