Emirates has introduced special fares for students travelling to Australia as part of the airline’s continuing support to Sri Lankans travelling overseas for higher education.

Two all-inclusive, one-way student fares to Melbourne and Sydney on Economy Class are priced at just Rs.58,349 and Rs.64,095 respectively, more than 10 per cent lower the standard fares, and are valid for purchase and outbound travel up to June 14, 2012.
Also on offer are competitive return fares to these two destinations from Rs.102,394 upwards inclusive of taxes, and attractive one-way fares to Brisbane and Perth from Rs.71,015 up, the airline said. All-inclusive return fares of Rs.109,649 to Brisbane and Rs.146,440 to Perth are also being marketed by Emirates during this period. The announcement of the special fares coincides with the Australian Education Excellence Showcase 2012, an event organised by Austrade/Australian Government to exhibit the education options and opportunities in Australia for Sri Lankan students with the participation of 20 institutions from Australia.  Emirates is the Associate Sponsor of the Showcase for the second consecutive year. Last year’s event drew more than 350 students and was one of the most successful of the events that profiled Australian education capabilities.
