It’s that time of year again… Black Friday and Cyber Money! Even though international travel isn’t on the cards just yet, that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t take a punt if the deal is right for some future travel.
Since travel isn’t exactly on everyone’s mind just yet, I will list some of my favourite shopping, cashback and discount codes as well.
Travel Deals:
Webjet (no affiliation):
Webjet has a range of coupon codes and bonus value on eGift cards (use them for future travel). I’ve tested a few of these, and there are many exclusions, so take these deals with a grain of salt and make sure to compare them to direct offers.
Webjet hotels:
- Use codeBFSALE50 for $50 OFF domestic accommodation bookings (minimum spend $500 applies)
- Use code BFSALE100 for $100 OFF domestic accommodation bookings (minimum spend $1,000 applies)
Webjet Holiday Packages:
- Use code 100BLKFRI for $100 OFF domestic holiday package bookings (minimum spend $1,000 applies)
- Use code 200BLKFRI for $200 OFF domestic holiday package bookings (minimum spend $2,000 applies)
Webjet gift cards:
These might actually be good value, with 10% bonus value and a validity of 3 years. That said, it’s best used if you have a flight in mind so you can price compare between other travel agents.

Skyscanner Black Friday Flights (no affiliation)
Skyscanner AU has a dedicated page for all the Black Friday / Cyber Monday deals. They are actively adding deals to the page and showing the saving vs usually pricing. You can find all the deals here: https://www.skyscanner.com.au/news/black-friday-cyber-monday-flight-deals
Accor Plus (5% Exclusive Discount – We get a couple of bucks if you use our link; thanks!)
We’ve teamed up with Accor Plus to offer a 5% discount to Flight Hacks readers. You can get this deal until December 11. If you’re not familiar, Accor Plus is a paid program which gives you 50% off dining (for 2), a free hotel stay, Accor Silver status and more. Also, check out my detailed Accor Plus guide here.
Six Senses – Plan Now Pay Later 20% bonus (no affiliation)
I’ve only stayed at the Six Senses city hotels in Singapore, but this is an excellent offer if you are eying up one of their luxury resorts for a much needed post-covid getaway. You can now buy gift cards with an additional 20% Bonus. The gift cards are issued in USD, and luckily the Aussie dollar is doing pretty good right now. Gift cards are valid for 3 years, and Six Senses are owned by IHG in case you were worried about losing your money.

IHG 50% Off Sale (no affiliation)
I was hoping to snag a bargain at the fantastic InterContinental Hayman Island under this promotion but the nightly rates there are almost triple to what they were before “you know what”. In any case, I’ll leave the link here so you can explore as there are many properties in Australia for the IHG brand. https://www.ihg.com/content/gb/en/deals/hotel-offers/cybersale
Tip: You can get 2,1% cashback and a $10 welcome bonus when you sign up via our partner link here.
LifeMiles 200% Bonus Sale (no affiliation)
LifeMiles by Avianca is running a 200% bonus sale on miles purchased. I picked some up during the last Sale, and 200% bonus is as good as it gets. You can then use these miles for future travel across the Star Alliance network. I used mine to book ANA First Class to Europe next year (feeling hopeful!).
