Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to fly from LAX to Kingsford Smith Intl. Airport (SYD)?
Qantas has a direct flight leaving LAX at 10:50PM and reaching Mascot Airport at 7:05AM — a total travel time of 15 hours and 15 minutes. Select the seat that’s right for you, pack a few things to keep you amused and the time will whiz by.
Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from LAX to SYD last minute?
Being the spontaneous type is a wonderful way to travel, but it’s not always the cleverest way to pick up a bargain airfare. Think about booking your LAX to Kingsford Smith Intl. Airport (SYD) journey well in advance rather than leaving it till the last minute. Based on flight pricing and demand studies in 2022, we have found that the best time to book domestic flights is between 28 – 35 days ahead of the departure date, and international flights three to four months in advance. We recommend saving that spontaneity for when you reach your destination!
