Virgin Australia has slashed fares to Perth to just $119 one-way from four Eastern State capitals in a bid to boost local tourism by $11 million.

The promotion is part of the State Government’s $195 million Reconnect WA package and Tourism WA’s $12 million Wander Out Yonder domestic marketing push.

The “Escape to WA” flight incentive is for discounts up to 50 per cent for flights from Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney and Adelaide.

The campaign targets travellers in the Eastern States looking to visit friends and relatives in Western Australia, as well as those who want to holiday within the country instead of heading overseas.

Sunrise correspondent Matt Tinney has the details.
