Qantas Jetstar Plan 27 Additional Flights Brisbane Melbourne Post-AFL Grand Final

The Brisbane Lions will face Geelong at the MCG for the AFL Grand Final, with Brisbane aiming to maintain its premiership status in its third consecutive final appearance. To accommodate the surge in travel demand, Virgin Australia has added 1,200 extra seats on flights from Brisbane to Melbourne, with additional return flights also scheduled. Furthermore, Qantas and Jetstar are preparing to operate up to 27 extra flights between Brisbane and Melbourne if Brisbane wins on Saturday night, providing over 4,500 additional seats to help fans attend the game. These flights will be available for booking shortly after the final siren on Saturday and will run from September 26 to September 29. Fans are encouraged to book early as the cheapest fares typically sell out quickly during high-demand sporting events. This coordinated effort by multiple airlines ensures Brisbane fans have ample travel options to support their team in the Grand Final.
