Return flights to Melbourne for £535? On Shenzhen Airlines, October–November 2026. This is genuinely rare for Australia, and yes, it includes a free bag.
The deal
Shenzhen Airlines return flights from the UK to Melbourne, departing October–November 2026. Price: £535 per person. Includes one free checked bag.
Why we like it
Australia flights rarely drop this low unless something's shifted in the market or an airline's aggressively chasing volume. At £535 return, you're looking at what used to be a mistake-fare price — so moving fast makes sense.
Shenzhen Airlines isn't a budget carrier, so you get a proper airline rather than a budget experience sandwiched into 24 hours. The free bag sweetens it further.
Only catch: October–November is shoulder season in Australia (spring), which is actually ideal weather-wise. If those dates suit you, this removes the usual "but when can I actually travel?" frustration.
How to book
Head to Shenzhen Airlines' site or your preferred flight search engine and check availability for your preferred dates in that window. Jack's Flight Club flagged this, so it's already live — but deals at this price move quickly, so don't leave it.
