We invite you and your travelers to join us Down Under in a place where the water's warm and the welcome even warmer. So, what are you waiting for? Come and Say G'day.
When to go
Australia is home to tropical, subtropical, desert and temperate climates – it has dewy rainforests, sandy plains, snowy alps and sunny beaches. Temperature and climate are important considerations when planning your client's trip and when they're packing their bags (it’s the land Down Under, so seasons are the opposite to the Northern Hemisphere). But don’t forget to consider peak seasons, spectacular wildlife events (e.g. whale watching season) and exciting festivals (e.g. Vivid Sydney) that could influence decisions on when to visit Australia.

Carriers that fly via their hubs to Australia include Hawaiian Airlines, Fiji Airways, Air New Zealand, as well as the middle eastern airlines.
The good news is most flights leave just after 10pm, which is a perfect time for a binge watch of a favorite series or a couple of movies before a nodding off for a snooze making Australia only 1 sleep away!
