Stopover flights from Melbourne: 16 cities to visit
Trips from Melbourne with a stop long enough to leave the airport, through 16 cities. Each price is for the whole trip, the stop included.
A stop here is at least 8 hours in the daytime, or at least 18 hours when it runs overnight, and at most 24 hours. It is in the same airport, on the way to where you are going, and never on a trip we think is on separate tickets. Leaving the airport means entering that country, so check its entry rules for your passport.
