May I ask our fellow OZB member stop reporting this deal as expired.
The price does go up and down. Probably due to exchange rate fluctuation.
Unless it goes back to its RRP, please keep the deal as active. Thank you.

Just in time for my upcoming trip this week.
For some random reason Tickets for the next 2 days is 75c more expensive.
You may select any departure date up to 2 months from today, however:

Tickets are valid for 3 months from date of purchase.

Original rip off price from Skybus official website is OW $24.60, RT $41.20
Cashback is not available.

    Don't think the departure date selected matters, you can use it within 3 months for any direction you like

  • Azro on 01/02/2025 - 20:52

    Use a card with no international transactions fee as Agoda is recognized as a foreign merchant by some banks.

      I wasn't charged any fx fee when I purchased this on my amex.

      Otherwise, definitely use fx-free cards for accomodations on Agoda. These do attract fx fees in my experience.

      • tigerjie on 01/02/2025 - 21:46

        For some accommodations they routed through Sydney 036, but if you've never booked the same one before you'll never know, so safer to use FX free cards just in case if it's your first time.

        AMEX doesn’t charge a fee if it’s already in AUD

        • JohnHowardsEyebrows on 01/02/2025 - 22:40

          Possibly the only remaining issuer in Australia which doesn't.

  • Ender Wiggin on 01/02/2025 - 21:14

    Is this the normal airport bus that leaves every half hour from southern cross?

    • AsukaST on 01/02/2025 - 21:16
      +5

      that's the one, and it leaves every 15 mins between 4am - 1am.

  • Ender Wiggin on 01/02/2025 - 21:24

    there is no option for the return trip? turn up and go?

    • Azro on 01/02/2025 - 21:41

      There are one way and return options. Buy return and scan the same ticket on the way back.

  • TheDukeOfNukem on 01/02/2025 - 22:24

    Is this only for Tulla? Missus is coming back on Tuesday from Avalon and was tossing up between driving in or Skybussing it.

    • Garyyy on 02/02/2025 - 00:27

      Agoda doesn't sell Avalon Skybus tickets; just Tulla

      • TheDukeOfNukem on 02/02/2025 - 08:56

        Bugger. Couldn't find any, but was positively knackered so figured I'd ask.

        Cheers!

    True Ozbargainer would catch the train to Broadmeadows and the 901 bus for $5.50 full fare (or $2.25 concession) ;-)

    • JohnHowardsEyebrows on 02/02/2025 - 09:06

      Or get the train early, and pay $3.50 ;)

      • bluepop on 02/02/2025 - 10:12

        Or catch the free DFO bus

    • cerealsmok3r on 02/02/2025 - 19:32

      Oooh thanks didn’t realise this was a thing. Will give it a shot

  • y_owez on 02/02/2025 - 09:50

    Price has increased ? Return is about $35 now

    • AsukaST on 02/02/2025 - 09:54

      Return is $31.99 at the moment.

  • mavalise on 02/02/2025 - 10:08

    Has anyone actually used this deal? Just don't want to turn up to the Skybus and they tell me it's a dud QR code!

    • Azro on 02/02/2025 - 10:54

      Yes, I used it last October, it's legit.

    • UrMumsOnlyFan on 02/02/2025 - 13:53

      Legit but beware of possible international transaction fee.

  • bluepop on 02/02/2025 - 10:11

    Remember the DFO bus is free!

    Skybus prices and monopoly is cartel level. Shameful

  • confetti01 on 02/02/2025 - 12:05

    Book ahead at least 48 hours from when you need to hop on. I learnt the hard way and didn’t get issued a ticket in time

  • TAPS001 on 02/02/2025 - 12:15

    Train to Broadmeadows (Craigieburn line) then 901 bus to the Airport

    If you have more tham one person Didi Travel is normally about the same price between the city and airport ($35). with the benefit of getting picked up.

  • devs on 02/02/2025 - 12:57

    I couldn't find a listing for the Peninsula Express on Agoda, is there one?

    • April-Sky on 02/02/2025 - 14:03

      I'd like to know too

  • April-Sky on 02/02/2025 - 14:02

    So is this only from the city, not outside suburbs please?

  • RiseAndRuin on 02/02/2025 - 16:54

    Discounted rip off price is still a rip off tbh, you're likely only saving money if you're travelling alone and you live close to one of their stops.

  • mavalise on 02/02/2025 - 17:48

    Return seems to now be 32.09?

  • Donmega123 on 02/02/2025 - 22:22

    That's one uncomfortable bus

  • DaTa on 03/02/2025 - 02:23

    Noticed the new price on a recent trip such a rip off, got to love these yearly price increases.

    • JohnHowardsEyebrows on 03/02/2025 - 08:27

      When they first switched to double deckers, some genius made a sign that said: "Double the size, and still only $19".

      The company is as stupid as they are greedy.

  • April-Sky on 03/02/2025 - 12:55

    Missed out on well

  • 88mph on 03/02/2025 - 13:53

    Just booked for a return trip next week, billed at $30.34, 3 month validity. Thanks Op.

  • Nathw on 05/02/2025 - 21:47

    $36.03 now for a return trip!?

    • bestdealsonly on 10/02/2025 - 11:32

      Try using your mobile. its cheaper

  • Tazzy95 on 13/02/2025 - 09:37

    How long does it take to receive the voucher? Mines stuck on processing.

  • playerzer2 on 15/02/2025 - 21:40

    How long does the voucher take to arrive? The transaction on the Agoda website took a long time (minutes) to accept, and now no confirmation has shown up. It's been about 1.5 hours.

    Need to use the voucher tomorrow.

    I'm already considering a chargeback.

    • AsukaST on 16/02/2025 - 02:01

      it was always instant for me.
      Do you see anything under Bookings?
      https://www.agoda.com/en-au/account/bookings.html
      There also may be a possibilty that your card is not working. check if the payment has gone through.

    • Barginboy56 on 19/02/2025 - 09:01

      Did you get the voucher eventually?

      • playerzer2 on 24/02/2025 - 08:36

        Got a confirmation about 2 hours later, and then sometime in the night (whilst I was sleeping), a cancellation notice. No explanation.
        Never using Agoda again, and looking at the reviews, I should never have tried in the first place. It was a few hours of stress I didn't need.

        • mnko on 01/03/2025 - 22:57

          Agoda is owned by Booking.com. Their website is a bit painful to use but they're definitely legit.

  • Barginboy56 on 19/02/2025 - 07:20

    It looks like there has been a change to the processing of vouchers, my card preauthorised, but order says checking with supplier. Will be interesting to see if I get a voucher eventually

  • Barginboy56 on 19/02/2025 - 17:08

    Update to those who are in the same situation with stuck on processing. I eventually received confirmation of the voucher around 6 hours after purchasing it through the Agoda site. It's a bit of a relief they are still selling these discounted tickets.

  • dust on 05/03/2025 - 10:40

    Prices are different on different devices for some reason.

    • AsukaST on 05/03/2025 - 11:54

      that's very common for agonda, booking.com etc.
