FTO AUSTRALIA

Virgin did some error on Melbourne to Gold Coast flight specials.
At the moment they have a special of $29 + $40 tax = $69 Melbourne to Goald Coast special.
However, when you go through the booking process, web site is not charging you the tax. So I bought return tickets for $58.
What a deal!!!!
I am not sure if this scam is possible for other routes however, worth trying. There are still heaps of tickets available.
I got 4 tickets already.
Be quick....

Did you pay by credit card Max? If you do, they can still send you a letter & then charge you afterward. But the chance of that are very slim.

if only our domestic travel was as cheap. Its actually cheaper to fly to some Australian destinations than it is to fly to many domestic cities here...

I paid by credit card, however, I dont think they can charge me extra, or lets say I wouldnt think they can dare to charge extra.
You should have seen it, there were so many tickets out there, and they were getting sold by the bucket loads. Everytime I refresh the page, some flights were disapearing. Phones were ringing in the office, people were calling from other offices, letting everybody know about the scam.
So many tickets sold today with this way. If they dare to chage extra, there will be a lot of noise from consumers.

Yeah like i said, all they have to do is send a letter, & they can charge you later on down the track. But i'm sure they won't do that.

No cheap flights from Canberra to Gold Coast nor Brisbane
I wanted a mini holiday

Damn,
I just tried and it looks like they have fixed it.

actually, this was advertised on the sydney morning herald.
so rest asured, they wont be beating a path to your door for the $40 tax per leg of the trip.
