Cheapest months for business class to Sydney

The cheapest months for business class from the US to Sydney are May through August — Australia's winter, which coincidentally is when fewer Americans travel Down Under. Our consolidator fares from Los Angeles start at consolidator pricing during these months, compared to $5,500+ during peak Australian summer (December-February).

The most expensive period is December through February, when Australian summer and school holidays create peak demand. Christmas and New Year flights can reach $9,000+ at retail.

Best routing options to Sydney

Our recommendation: For the best balance of price and comfort, consider connecting via Singapore on SQ or via Hong Kong on Cathay Pacific. Both offer excellent business class products and the connection breaks up the ultra-long journey.
