Looking to book some flights so just wondering if there’s any better options than Skyscanner to source flights ?

Google Flights  https://www.google.com/flight then book direct. Anywhere in Oz in particular? Some better deals normally by doing a flight to a bigger hub then a domestic onwards just make sure you allow 3hrs to do the immigration and drop your bags again.

I use Kayak, Skyscanner and Google mostly (visiting Australia every 3-4 months for work). I also check airline websites to see how they balance out but usually it's some random combo of multiple airlines.

Hopefully not on the same combination of legs!!

Basic combo's from down under Virgin Aus/Singapore/Etihad or Qantas/Emirates

If you are doing a international to domestic transfer Sydney is probably the most work.

Kayak filters/options allow you to nail down pretty much what you want. You won't end up booking through them but they'll probably get a referral fee that's transparent to you.
