Perth, Jan 8: Fresh out of the New Year and Christmas break and already thinking about another quick getaway?
Scoot has just launched a new sale, running from Wednesday 7 January to Monday 12 January 2026, with discounted per-way fares (including taxes) to a long list of destinations across Asia.
If you’re craving sun, street food or a city reset, the deals cover places like Osaka, Bangkok, Ho Chi Minh City, Kuala Lumpur, Penang and Koh Samui, plus plenty more. The travel periods included are 19 January to 18 March 2026, 15 April to 4 June 2026, 13 July to 10 September 2026, and 5 October to 24 October 2026. Scoot says blackout periods may apply during school holiday and event peaks.
The timing is also handy if you’re trying to squeeze in trips around Australia’s 2026 long weekends. Scoot points out that taking four days off around Australia Day could turn into nine consecutive days away, and planning around Easter could stretch to as many as sixteen days with strategic leave.
Here are a few of the advertised sample fares in Economy, per-way ex-Australia (including taxes):
Koh Samui from $300 Sydney / $290 Melbourne / $245 Perth
Kuala Lumpur from $235 Sydney / $155 Perth
Ho Chi Minh City from $230 Sydney / $240 Melbourne / $189 Perth
Bangkok from $240 Sydney / $235 Melbourne / $179 Perth
Osaka from $310 Sydney / $310 Melbourne / $269 Perth
Penang from $235 Sydney / $159 Perth
ScootPlus fares are also on sale for travellers who want a bit more comfort or extra inclusions, with sample pricing including Singapore from $525 Sydney / $510 Melbourne / $299 Perth, Taipei from $600 Sydney / $590 Melbourne / $529 Perth, Amritsar from $610 Sydney / $600 Melbourne / $579 Perth, and Narita from $820 Sydney / $810 Melbourne / $719 Perth.
Scoot also highlights a few add-ons travellers can choose, including a 10kg cabin baggage allowance on Economy, Scootsurance travel cover, and Multiflex for unlimited changes to flight date and time on a booking.
