Cheap flights from Manchester to Adelaide from £478

Travellers wishing to fly from Manchester and Adelaide have a number of options departing from Manchester Airport. Manchester Airport is the third busiest airport in the UK and has flights to 199 destinations. It is located 7.5 miles to the south-west of the city and can be accessed by rail from Manchester Piccadilly Station, Metrolink from Manchester Victoria Station, a number of bus and coach options departing from numerous points in the city, and several taxi companies.

There are no direct flights between Manchester and Adelaide and the most direct routes require two stops at airports in Europe or Asia. Qantas Airlines, Turkish Airlines, Etihad Airlines, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Malaysian Airlines, and Air France offer the most direct routes, with stops in two cities each. However, although these flights may only make two stops, travellers should be aware that some of these stopovers can be long. For example, several KLM flights have a 21h stopover in Amsterdam and a 17h stopover in Singapore, with the total travel time clocking in at over 60h. Travellers with time and who are interested in side-trips to other cities along the way may prefer these options. For those with less time to spare, some flights making three stops may actually prove more time-effective. Typically, many routes using multiple airlines will complete the journey in around 36h on average. For example, one combined Turkish Airlines/ANA/Qantas flight departing from Manchester first flies to Istanbul and, following a brief transit of 2h and 35min, then proceeds to Tokyo, where travellers must wait for 3h and 40min at Haneda International Airport before continuing to Sydney's Kingsford Smith International Airport, then finally transferring to a domestic Qantas flight to Adelaide after a 1h 40min transfer in Sydney.

All flights between Manchester and Adelaide require at least two stopovers but travellers have quite a broad choice of routes, depending on their time and budget constraints. One of the main carriers is KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, which stops in both Amsterdam and Singapore before continuing directly to Adelaide. On some days, stopovers may be quite long and some flights involve a stopover of over 20h in Amsterdam plus another of over 17h in Singapore. For adventurous travellers who have time to spare, this option offers the opportunity to enjoy side-trips in cities en route. Other routes involving two stops may be offered by Turkish Airlines, which stops in Istanbul and Kuala Lumpur, Qantas, which stops in Dubai and Melbourne, Perth, or Sydney, Etihad, which stops in Abu Dhabi and Sydney, and several routes that combine airlines and stop in a number of cities.

All travellers flying to Adelaide from Manchester will need a valid passport. UK passport holders also need to get an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) before travelling. This can be obtained online for a processing fee of £11 and is valid for stays of up to 90 days in Australia.
