25.01.2022 Qantas has confirmed it will run several rescue flights, underwritten by the federal government, to bring up to 1315 stranded Australians home from overseas.



25.01.2022 While its flying days might have come to an end, the aircraft still has value. In fact, the sum of its parts is worth more than the whole.

25.01.2022 A man who wants to travel to Australia from New Zealand to support his sick partner has been told he will not be allowed to enter the country, despite changes to travel restrictions that will see quarantine-free travel from New Zealand begin on Friday.

24.01.2022 A new design for economy class cabins could mean more space for passengers and better social distancing on planes.



24.01.2022 We don't know when exactly, but it seems increasingly certain Australians will be able to return to the Land of the Long White Cloud soon. That means access to so much of what we love about travel, and everything that makes New Zealand great. Our cover story this week by @bengroundwater is all about NZ. In anticipation of our return, we asked nine well-known Kiwis to tell us where to go. To read, pick up a copy of @sydneymorningherald or @theageaustralia in print on Saturday. @king_roberto

24.01.2022 Australia has more than its fair share of fabulous spots for capturing the perfect sunset, like here at Melbourne's St Kilda. There's also the bonus that the beach faces west over Port Phillip Bay, so the sun goes down over water. Get the pier in the frame for the moody shot, then head over to the breakwater after the sun's gone down to watch little penguins scurry home from the sea. : @lukesphotographymelbs

23.01.2022 With those borders closed indefinitely, domestic tourism operators have a captive market for Australians wanting a holiday. But they face an uphill challenge convincing some millennials' that local travel provides value for money.



23.01.2022 What treasures lie within cavernous Skull Rock have largely been held secret, until now.

22.01.2022 We were living through a golden age of travel - until COVID-19 came along.

21.01.2022 Stingrays, sharks, dolphins and sea lions are here, but in summer there's an even more exotic species.

20.01.2022 While you seemingly can't move for paddlesteamers, today's roster is a relative trifle.

20.01.2022 Forget Champagne - the world’s second best sparking wine region is here.



20.01.2022 Everybody knows about Sydney's Taronga Zoo, but did you know you can now stay there? Overlooking Sydney Harbour from leafy Mosman, the Wildlife Retreat at Taronga opened last year. Accommodation is plush, in the style of a five-star hotel. But the true stars, of course, are the animals. At the centre of the retreat is The Sanctuary, the new home for Australian marsupials and monotremes such as koalas, wallabies and echidnas, with platypus housed in a pool at the retreat's ent...rance. Soak it all in at The Nest, a circular lounge with panoramas of the harbour and city as well as glimpses of wandering wildlife below. From historical homesteads and wildlife retreats to harbourside views and seaside sanctuaries, there are plenty of ways to discover the charming landscapes of NSW and the ACT. Pick up a copy of The Sydney Morning Herald or The Age today for Good Weekend Magazine 52 Weekends Away to start dreaming about them now. #goodweekendmag #52weekendsaway #travellerau #travelleraudream

19.01.2022 Most Sydneysiders don't even realise this small, mysterious slice of history is there, hidden in plain sight.

19.01.2022 There's a saying you often hear applied to aspects of life: go hard, or go home. Don't be afraid. Make it big or don't bother at all. Can you apply this attitude to travel?

19.01.2022 It's nearly the school holidays but with borders closed and the state's regions filling up, some Sydney families are preparing for a holiday close to home.

18.01.2022 For those who will be taking the chance to explore more of Australia in the coming months and are hungry for a few cultural clashes, these are the differences you can expect.

18.01.2022 "You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me" might be the best-known line in Australian literature, but surely "I love a sunburnt country" isn't far behind. But which places was Dorothea Mackellar referring to in her famous poem and love letter to Australia, 'My Country' ?

18.01.2022 Coming in to land over Hamilton Island, one of the Whitsunday's 74 islands, never fails to spark joy especially if you've left cooler climes behind. Stepping off the plane, you first feel the balmy breeze and then see the turquoise Coral Sea beyond. Here, golf carts are ideal for exploring the island's lush hilly terrain, lending a Fantasy Island feel to this car-free paradise. Tootling around, waving at other holidaymakers, instantly puts you on island time. Despite being ...the Whitsundays' largest inhabited island with its own airport and bustling marina, 70 per cent of Hamilton Island remains untouched rainforest. @_markfitz

17.01.2022 The coffins were discovered at the home to one of the world's oldest pyramids and a UNESCO world heritage site.

17.01.2022 Itchy and Scratchy, these adorable Tassie devils, are twin joeys born at Aussie Ark as part of the organisations insurance population for the endangered Tasmanian devil. Choosing a name was easy for these cheeky devils, who are being hand-raised by Keeper Hewin Hochkins at the Australian Reptile Park for the next eight months - which means 'round the clock care, warm snuggles and bottle feeds around four to five times a day. These two have a very important job to do when th...ey grow up, becoming ambassadors for their species for @aussieark . Sadly, 90 per cent of the wild Tasmanian devil population has disappeared due to devil facial tumour disease. Video: Aussie Ark Australian Reptile Park

17.01.2022 These are extraordinary times that require creative solutions. Would you be prepared to travel overseas if you were allowed, provided you paid for your hotel quarantine on return?

17.01.2022 Travel in the mind is all we have at the moment, at least in its international form, but it still has limitless boundaries and the power to make us smile. We asked five of our writers about their last overseas trip before borders closed, and how it inspired them.

16.01.2022 I miss the basic travel experience, of course: the scenery, the food, the act of going somewhere new. But more than anything else, this is what I miss - and it cannot be replicated by travelling in Australia.

16.01.2022 Test your travel knowledge with our weekly quiz.

16.01.2022 In one small leap for the global trend of micro-hotels, Canberra-based Little National brand has opened its first off-shoot in Sydney above Wynyard Station, slap-bang in the middle of the CBD.

16.01.2022 Zoos are so much more than a bunch of animal exhibits. Now you can stay among the animals while helping conservation efforts.

16.01.2022 Why all the fuss, Sydney? Australia already has a beach club, and it's in the most unlikely of Australia's cities, and it's great.

16.01.2022 An aerial view of Kakadu is recommended for a great overview in any season, but the landscape and waterfalls are particularly dramatic during the Wet, with the volume of water plummeting over the cliffs a truly stupendous sight.

16.01.2022 For anyone who might be feeling nostalgic for the golden age of travel, Qantas is opening its memorabilia storage shed to the Australian public.

15.01.2022 Before coronavirus was even a thought in our heads, I put myself on an overseas travel ban, one that so far has lasted one year, one month and 10 days (but who's counting?).

15.01.2022 Our pandemic performance is the yardstick by which other countries are measured, but it's come at a cost.

15.01.2022 Fifty-five cruises from Australia are now cancelled, along with 14 other international sailings.

15.01.2022 Travellers desperate to get in the air will be able to board a Qantas flight taking in some of Australia's iconic sights.

15.01.2022 Airbus has set itself a deadline to put a carbon-free commercial aircraft into service, a target engine makers like have described as "ambitious".

14.01.2022 G'day mate! Welcome to Stradbroke Island. Kangaroos here are as used to posing for snaps as the Kardashians, spotted here at the island's North Gorge Walk. Only 45 minutes away via ferry from Brisbane, the island is perfect for day-trippers. But the coastline is also built for slow exploration, with intriguing gorges, shaggy she-oaks and deep rock pools. Straddie's coastal walk is prime whale-watching territory, whille North Stradbroke has one of the largest, healthie...st population of wild koalas in South-East Queensland, the creatures having benefited from the island's relative isolation and low-density housing. : @_markfitz #travellerau #travelleraudream #stradbroke #stradbrokeisland #straddie #straddieis #straddieanyday #queensland #thisisqueensland #thisisqueensland #queensland_captures #queenslandtourism #qld #islandlife #australia #seeaustralia #seeaustralia_qld #australiashotz #australiagram #australiagram_qld #travelphotography #traveller #northstradbrokeisland #northstraddie #northstraddieisland #visitbrisbane #qldparks #koalas #kangaroo #koala

13.01.2022 With glorious glamping, cosy bush breaks and lavish inner-city stays, there's something for everyone as Victoria begins to blossom once more. Good Weekend Magazine #goodweekendmag #52weekendsaway traveller.com.au/52-weekends-away-victorias-best-weekend-ge

12.01.2022 The caramel-note whisky is the only one in Tasmania that is triple-distilled. And the gin isn't called Poltergeist for nothing.

12.01.2022 Luxury has finally arrived at the isle once known for basic, self-catered bungalows with salt-water showers, tents or bunks at the army barracks.

11.01.2022 The new Oval Hotel is destined to be a crowd-pleaser owing to its unrivalled intimacy with not one but two patches of hallowed turf.

10.01.2022 Think about last year: you could have gone anywhere, you could have done anything. You could have flown to Asia for less than a week's rent. You could have taken a couple of weeks in Europe without having to scrimp and save, without having to dedicate yourself to this one holiday, this one adventure. Twenty years ago, you couldn't have done that.

10.01.2022 We have a first-class tourism product, with destination after destination that is sought out by the rest of the world, attraction after attraction that overseas visitors spend their life savings on travelling here to experience. Yet the local audience just shrugs its shoulders and says, "Yeah, nah."

10.01.2022 Air New Zealand has been hit especially hard because it makes two-thirds of its earnings from international flying, which will remain shut off long after domestic travel has returned. That compares to one-third at Qantas.

09.01.2022 From historical homesteads and wildlife retreats to harbourside views and seaside sanctuaries, there are plenty of ways to discover the charming landscapes of NSW and the ACT. Good Weekend Magazine #goodweekendmag #52weekendsaway #travel

08.01.2022 Australia is phenomenally greedy with its collection of great views. Here are ten of the best spots around the country to let loose those "WOW!"s.

07.01.2022 Royal Caribbean Group, one of the largest cruise companies operating in Australia, has cancelled all its remaining cruises in the region for this year, with plans to restart in 2021.

07.01.2022 WA's Busselton Jetty is the longest wooden structure of its type in the world, attracting over 550,000 visitors each year. But there's more to this jetty than good looks. Six flights below the end of the historic 1.8 kilometre-long wooden jetty is a magical aquatic world. At the Underwater Observatory, travellers can expect to see around 300 marine species, including stingrays, sharks, dolphins and sea lions. During the warmer months, visitors might be lucky enough to see mer...maids. Located in Geographe Bay, about 220km southwest of Perth, it's also one of the best places to go whale watching on Australia's west coast, with an estimated 35,000 humpback, blue and southern right whales visiting the Margaret River region each year. : @my_vision_photography

06.01.2022 Australia's vast, sprawling outback is famed for its long, intimidating stretches of absolutely nothing.

Here's where to find the highlights of Australia's remote interior.

06.01.2022 Travellers are still waiting for their refund from Lufthansa for $13,192 paid on September 12, 2019.

06.01.2022 Grafton is famous for its purple blooms. A 6.5 hour road trip north of Sydney is where you'll find Grafton's streets and parks blanketed in purple from the town's 2000 plus jacaranda trees. Jacaranda season is in full swing between mid-October to mid-November. : @laurenepbath

06.01.2022 From a long cold milkshake, to that other type of Milky Way, to camels in a main street, to ancient Indigenous art - there's plenty to see in this remote NSW town and its surrounds.

06.01.2022 This turtle sums up how we're all feeling about 2020.

05.01.2022 Skytrax, which also runs the World Airline Awards and World Airport Awards, conducted an audit of the airport over three days in September.

05.01.2022 If you haven't caught a bullet train to observe cherry blossoms with a dish of sashimi of pufferfish, more poisonous than cyanide on your knee, then you haven't lived.

05.01.2022 The heart-stopping beauty of the Cinque Terre derives from the huddled topography of its pastel-coloured, sea girt villages, and also from its intricately terraced vineyards. Nestled into the Ligurian coast is Riomaggiore, which is the first of five villages visitors see when travelling north by boat from La Spezia. : @justinmeneguzzi

03.01.2022 Golden fields as far as the eye can see and purple canopies with petals falling like violet snow. Spring has sprung and it's time to lose yourself in Australia's striking canola fields or beneath flowering jacaranda trees.

02.01.2022 The pass allows passengers to pay a single flat fee and fly as many times as they like within a set period - one, two or three months.
