The Possible Destinations

You could be staying within easy access of the CBD or in a fabulous beachside location — there’s always plenty to do close to your hotel, on foot or by public transport.

Whitsunday Coast

QLD

Bordered by the Great Barrier Reef and cradled by the calm waters of the Coral Sea, the Whitsundays lies midway along Australia’s Queensland coast.

Townsville

QLD

Townsville is Australia’s largest tropical city and the gateway to the Great Barrier Reef. For a taste of the Reef, visit Reef HQ. For the real thing you can book a cruise to the Outer Barrier Reef.

Sydney

NSW

Whether you’re looking for outdoor adventure or cosmopolitan culture, Sydney’s got it. Climb to the top of the Harbour Bridge or take a skywalk on Sydney Tower for a 360-degree view of the city.

Sunshine Coast

QLD

Pristine coastline, lush hinterland and superb cuisine. The Sunshine Coast offers action and adventure or just the perfect piece of sand on which to sit and ponder?

Melbourne

VIC

Whether you’re looking for great food and wine, a little bit of retail therapy, or interested in entertainment and culture, Melbourne has something for everyone.

Mackay

QLD

Situated on some of Queensland’s most scenic coastline, the Mackay region boasts a mighty 31 beaches and several tropical islands within the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park.

Launceston

TAS

“Lonnie” (as the locals like to call it) is a surprising destination. At first glance it may seem just a little quiet but what we at Mystery Flights have discovered on our trips to Launceston is quite the opposite.

Hobart

TAS

The team at Mystery Flights love Hobart! The Mystery Flights team take a Mystery Flight each year as a Christmas Party event.

Fraser Coast

One of NSW’s best kept secrets! Coffs Harbour is a delightful city surrounded by some of Australia’s prettiest coastline, a World Heritage Rainforest and numerous National Parks.

Alice Springs

Eclectic communities, award-winning restaurants and Moreton Bay’s dolphins just 35km from the CBD.

Gold Coast

QLD

Theme park capital with more attractions than anywhere in the Southern Hemisphere — and naturally spectacular hinterland.

Coffs Harbour

NSW

One of NSW’s best-kept secrets: pristine coastline, World Heritage rainforest and whale watching June to October.

Canberra

32km of white sandy beaches and crystal-clear waterways — a playground for beach lovers and eco adventurers.

Brisbane

QLD

Eclectic communities, award-winning restaurants and Moreton Bay’s dolphins just 35km from the CBD.
