Been looking, and not having much luck this year. A friend and myself want to head o/s over the Australia Day weekend (eg 23rd Jan, return 26 Jan). Their preference is a island type area, although other places should be ok.
Have tried most of my usual haunts and closeish islands etc, and nothing is really working out well from Brisbane - either horrible flight times (ala Jetstar to DPS), no flights on those dates etc, or fares that are not really that appealing (eg $1600 to SIN).
They don't really want to fly through SYD etc, so that reduces choices. It might be ok if the fare or location was good. A possibility is ZQN using Air NZ which seems to price out fairly well, but havn't seen too many other options.
Any suggestions? I still need about 25 sc's to renew Plat, so Qantas SC's are a bonus!
