Just wondered when anyone could advise the best time to travel to Australia (Perth and Brisbane areas) both for the weather (we like it hot!) and cheap flights.

Weather-wise, the next couple of months are 'mid-summer' and the hottest parts of the year - they are also the wettest in Brisbane because of it's sub-tropical situation. See Brisbane averages and Perth averages. Not sure about when the cheapest flights are.

We might have been lucky but we got cheap flights in March a couple of years ago and the weather was 30 degrees with no rain for 3 weeks from March 14th! This was Brisbane. Found September in Perth reasonably priced but despite lots of sun - very cold wind and were frozen and unable to buy jumpers as it was spring.

Just stay away from the UK holiday periods and you might get a good deal on a flight.

Last year there were seat sales on from Boxing Day to New Years day and we bought 5 return flights (ex:- UK) to use in 2006. The child fare was £463 and the adult fares around £570 including all the taxes. That was booked through Trailfinders and was flying Emirates Birmingham to Perth.
This year all the flights are around £600 (that I can find) and ther are no seat sales on. :-(
