Peak season:
Brisbane has a tropical climate, so autumn, spring and winter are the best times to get a dose of Queensland sunshine without the high humidity. With temps in the low to mid 20s during the day, sightseeing is pleasant and there are lots of events and festivals taking place. Book well in advance for cheap flights to Brisbane, especially in May and October, and check festival dates in case they clash with your holiday. Big events such as Ekka, the Royal Queensland Show held in August, attract thousands of visitors so flight tickets will be snapped up.
Off season:
Most people tend to avoid travelling to Brisbane in summer (December to February) unless it’s visiting family for Christmas and New Years or attending an event such as the annual International Tennis Tournament in February. Change of season months, November and March will be rainy and muggy but if you don’t mind high humidity, thunderstorms and severe heat, and mainly indoor activities, then you’ll pick up some of the cheapest flights to Brisbane.
The main factors influencing cheap flights to Brisbane are the weather and festivals/events. If you prefer milder temperatures then concentrate on the autumn, spring and winter months and avoid visiting during November to March. May and late October are the most popular times to visit, with no school holidays, temps in the mid 20s and no rain, so expect flight prices to be more expensive.
