Stopovers: Travelling from the UK to Australia

Are you looking for a dreamy, romantic getaway? Picture yourself on a tropical island escape in Fiji or The Cook Islands. The breathtaking scenery and serene beaches will transport you to a world of pure relaxation and romance. If you're up for some excitement, why not ignite your senses in Singapore or Hong Kong? The bustling streets, incredible food, and vibrant cultures will leave you wanting more.

Now, here's where a stopover comes into play. It's the perfect opportunity to make your journey more enjoyable and exciting. Rather than enduring long flights straight to Sydney, Canberra, or Melbourne, why not break it up with a stopover? You can stay at a luxurious five-star hotel, take a refreshing dip in the pool, or even work out at the gym. And don't forget to treat yourself to the local flavours and indulge in a soothing massage or explore the surrounding area.

Break up your flight with a stopover and stay at a five-star hotel

Based on our experience, we suggest staying for one or two nights before continuing your journey, but if you're keen to linger longer, that's entirely up to you. Contact us for advice on the best stopover locations. We can arrange flights that perfectly suit your wants and needs.

So, why settle for a regular journey when you can add a touch of excitement and luxury with a stopover? Let us help you have the holiday of a lifetime.

"My favourite stopover location is Hong Kong. It boasts old-fashioned Chinese neighbourhoods combined with a modern, Western influence."
