The routes to Melbourne from Heathrow all depart from London Heathrow Airport (LHR), which is situated about 30min by car to the west side of London. If you’d prefer not to drive you can catch the Heathrow Express out of Paddington Station, which will take you directly to the airport. Heathrow is the busiest airport in the UK. On the vast majority of routes you’ll land in Melbourne at Melbourne Airport (MEL), which is also known as Melbourne Tullamarine Airport, which is the second busiest in Australia. It’s about 14 miles from the centre of town, which will take you about 30-40min from the centre of the city. If you want to use public transport, the Melbourne Airport Rail Train will get you there in about half an hour. A handful of routes land at Melbourne’s Avalon Airport (AVV), which is about a 50-min drive from Melbourne CBD on the M1. You can also take the SkyBus Avalon City Express shuttle.

Question 33

Which airlines fly directly from Heathrow to Melbourne?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately, there aren’t any airlines that make a direct long-haul flight between Heathrow and Melbourne, so you’ll either make one or two stops along the way.

The most common stopover airports en route are Doha Hamad International Airport (DOH), used by Qatar Airlines and British Airways, while the Singapore Airlines flights all stop over at Singapore Changi Airport (SIN). Almost all of the two-stop routes are operated by Qantas with stopover airports including Dubai International Airport (DXB) and Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport (SYD).

Question 34

Accepted Answer

If you opt for a two-stop route between Heathrow and Melbourne, there are two basic choices, both flown by Qantas. One route departs from Heathrow and makes its first stopover at Dubai International Airport before flying to Sydney Kingsford Smith, and from there to Melbourne’s Avalon Airport. The other Qantas route also flies via Dubai and Sydney, but lands at Melbourne Airport instead. You’ll have more choice with the one-stop routes. The British Airways flights stop over at Doha Hamad International and then fly to Melbourne. If you prefer you can fly on Singapore Airlines, where you’ll make a stopover at Singapore Changi Airport. A third option is to board Qatar Airways at Heathrow, which will also stop over at Doha Hamad and finally land at Melbourne Airport. You can also fly a combination of airlines on this route by booking with British Airways for the first leg of the flight to Doha Hamad, where you’ll change to Qatar Airways to fly to Melbourne Airport.
