The process of getting from Melbourne to Perth is quite similar to that of getting from Sydney to Perth, but still I think it’s great to cover the topic in a post of its own. The main difference when going from Melbourne to Perth is that many people, when choosing to drive, will drive along the Great Ocean Road on the way out.
Still, there is a great expanse of land between Melbourne and Perth – 3400 kilometers of it to be more exact. It’s not a quick hop by any way except for plane, but you can easily book a cheap flight to Perth here on this site (and it is recommended for those hard pressed for time).
The in-flight journey from Melbourne to Perth runs in the 3.75 hours range, which is not bad at all. You’ll enjoy making it to Western Australia, which is a state that plays home to some of the most beautiful landscapes, beaches and overall scenery in all of Australia. Flying to Perth can be done on Qantas, Jetstar and Virgin Blue. While you’re here, be sure to check for fares using the search buttons below!
