Calgary to Melbourne, Sydney, or Brisbane, Australia - $760 to $775 CAD roundtrip

A koala in Australia

Qantas has once again dropped the price of their flights from Calgary to cities in Australia, this time down to between $760 and $775 CAD roundtrip including taxes.

This is not as low as back in November, when Qantas dropped them to $651 roundtrip, but it's still an amazing price for Australia, on an excellent airline (ranked #11 in the world in 2018).

You can also turn these into 2-in-1 trips and visit both Australia and San Francisco (or Los Angeles), for about the same price.

You can also fly into one Australian city, but home from another, for about the same price.

Availability for travel

late February, March, April, May, November 2019

(but it varies by the destination city in Australia)

3. Go to Skyscanner or Flighthub

Melbourne (MEL)
or
Sydney (SYD)
or
Brisbane (BNE)

- use the same dates you found on Google Flights

- the price on Skyscanner or Flighthub will usually be around $75 to $100 cheaper than what you see on Google Flights.

NOTE: The first search result on Skyscanner or Flighthub may not always be the best flights. Check out the different options on the first page of the results.

You may also want to try using the filters on either site to narrow it down to flights that are only 1 stop each way, if they're available.
