Queenstown in New Zealand has been ranked twelfth in the top 25 destinations across the Asia Pacific, falling one spot behind Sydney.

The city moved three places up from last year and was voted in as the only New Zealand destination in the top Asia Pacific destinations list at this year’s Travellers Choice Awards.

I’ve had a lot of trouble logging into WordPress lately, consequently no posts.
Hopefully things are improving with their system or maybe it is my computer!

TripAdvisor, the world’s largest travel site, today announced the winners of its first-ever ‘Best Beach awards’. In a boost for Sunshine Coast tourism, Noosa and Mooloolaba beaches were named in the top 10 best beaches in the South Pacific for 2011. Noosa was voted as the third best beach in the world and Mooloolaba was named as tenth.
I wonder what the criteria was as I know a lot of beaches I would much prefer to either of the above. However let’s hope it increases tourism to the area after the recent weather events in Qld.

It seems that V Australia customers are the most content with their airline service, according to research. 91 percent of customers were ‘very’ or ‘fairly’ satisfied after their flight for the 12 months ending January 2011.

The wet season is coming to an end in the north of OZ. A great time to travel there now before things start to dry out.

Qantas starts flights direct to Dallas in May and the Dallas Tourist Bureau has been in Australia promoting the State of Texas.
Could be a good time to get a bargain in Texas!

It seems that some tour operators are already taking bookings for Egypt so if you were planning a trip there now would be a good time to start making enquiries.
