Attention all my travel loving friends, family and colleagues.
As travel is becoming more and more possible, now is a great time to start thinking of and planning your next (and much overdue) holiday or trip away to visit loved ones.
I recently booked a very good friend of mine to the Maldives and there were huge savings to be had as resorts and hotels are desperate for people to come visit them again.
It’s not just overseas either. Destinations here in Australia are also offering great deals and regardless of where you go it’s possible to take advantage of the very flexible booking conditions allowing you to be prepared for the ever evolving COVID situation.
So please do you get in touch for any and all travel that you may be considering as I would love to assist getting you back out and enjoying the world again.
All my details are on my Facebook or LinkedIn pages easily accessed using the links below or you can send me a WhatsApp

I've taken a moment to pause and reflect on what I love about travel, and where the future will take us. Will you join me in thinking about where you'll be?
In 2 weeks? In 2 months? In 2 years?
Prime Minister Scott Morrison has recently stated that "if there is any country in the world with whom we can reconnect with first, undoubtedly that's New Zealand."
Similar discussions are already starting around the opening of travel to Singapore too, who are taking similar measures to Australia and New Zealand.
Our road out of this crisis is gradually growing clearer, but it begins with domestic travel. Borders will open here, and then our neighbouring countries - New Zealand, the Pacific, Asia and more.
Local to Global.
Planning your trips for later this year and into 2021 has never been easier. I'm ready and available to sit down with you, albeit virtually for now, to discuss any plans and ideas you may have. No matter how intricate, I'm here to help plan your future in travel.
We're still working hard to help all of our clients, families, friends and colleagues that are going through a difficult time right now. We created the Guide Them Home movement on Monday March 23rd to highlight our efforts in helping people get back to their countries, as best as we can, during the COVID-19 crisis.
A range of suppliers have reached out to us so far, offering their services and aiming to bring relief to travellers returning to their home countries. Here's a quick rundown:
We are keeping in touch with Qantas and Virgin Australia and will regularly update you as this information comes in. Qatar Airways have been working to get people home around the globe, launching additional services into Australia. Singapore Airlines will reinstate three flights between Singapore and Sydney during the period of 3rd - 10th April 2020, and British Airways BA15 London-Sydney will be operating until and including 06 April. BA16 Sydney-London’s last operation will be up to and including 08 April.
The Kingsford Brisbane Airport are providing free hotel accomodation to public health workers, medical service providers and regional medical teams travelling to Brisbane.
Radisson on Flagstaff Gardens Melbourne, Meriton Suites and Accor Hotels Melbourne have offered their hotels as safe-havens for guests needing to self-isolate, including work-from-home arrangements and utilities accessible to those guests on-site.
Please note that Australian Passport holders can currently still transit through NZ, as well as Doha. Hong Kong, Singapore, Dubai have closed to transit passengers and direct flights are scarce.

Hi, I’m Craig, one of 1000 Mile Travel Group’s dedicated Travel Experts.
After a trip to the Middle East and Europe in my early 20’s, my life and career aspirations changed forever. It was a trip I was apprehensive to take, but it shaped my entire perception of what it means to explore the world.
I returned from my journey and spent the next 3 years working in leisure travel, and was fortunate enough to continue my overseas travel throughout Asia, the USA and across the Australian outback. I decided to shift my life again and relocated to London with my family, focusing now on corporate travel and managing business clients with complex trip plans, budgets and travel policy creation and maintenance.
The extensive knowledge I’ve gained and developed over the years in dealing with all types of travellers enables me to read people quickly and understand what they are looking for in a travel plan. Are you travelling on a strict budget and intend to travel as economically as possible? Or maybe it’s Business or First Class with no expense spared.
For a number of years during my time in London, I had the pleasure of working with many VIPs, celebrities and sports personalities. This instilled in me an intimate understanding of the importance of confidentiality and ensuring these travellers were well looked after with all itinerary aspects effectively managed.
15 years later, I’ve returned to Australia and have commenced running my own business with 1000 Mile Travel Group. This partnership broadens my existing relationships with airlines, boutique hotels and luxury resorts with an even larger range of products, services and technologies—bringing corporate travel management into the 21st century.
Take the hassle out of your travel and get in touch!
