Seats on Virgin Australia’s domestic Pride Flight services can now be booked for a set price of just $269* one-way in Economy, including access to a departure gate party and the official Landing Party (after party) at Sydney’s iconic The Beresford, in Surry Hills.

All Pride Flight services will be operated by LGBTQIA+ people and allies. And like previous years, $30 from the sale of each ticket will be donated to Minus18, an Australian charity improving the lives of LGBTQIA+ youth.
