Return of the £10 Pom

Tuesday, 7 July 20093 min read

LONDON – Almost four decades after the last £10 Pom set sail, STA Travel is releasing a limited number of flights to Australia for 10 pounds to a new generation of British migrants on working holidays.

The promotion, in association with Tourism Australia and Qantas, offers one-way tickets to five Australian cities – Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane and Adelaide – to anyone with a valid Working Holiday Visa (WHV).

But unlike the original scheme, which subsidised the travel of around one million British migrants between 1945 and 1972, there are only 150 tickets available on a first-come-first-serve basis at selected branches of STA.
