Where in the World?
Hey kiddoes! I was thinking about some money I have to spend on a plane journey somewhere - I had 4 flights credited because I was unable to take them, so now I have around $600 worth of flights to use up.
I'm trying to decide where to go that won't be too expensive. I can only use the money on flights, not accomodation, so I want somewhere that will use the money I've got, but wont be too expensive accomodation wise.
I have until feb to use them.
Anyone have any ideas as to what might be cheap and close to Australia?
I've been to thailand, so I thought maybe queensland, but I Dunno....
where would you go if you were me?

Re: Where in the World?
Wow! So jealous - to just be able to have money to burn on travel! Well, okay, not quite to burn, but still!
Hmmm... India would be pretting interesting IMO, but Japan would be too! Choices, choices! Have fun!!  Definitely let us know what you decide on.

Re: Where in the World?
Oeh i was in Queensland Australia last month 
Also in Sydney
How about Indonesia?
That's pretty close...
I definitely recommend Europe in the summer, but then you'd probably have to pay a lot extra...
Now it's winter in Aus, I would go somewhere warm

Re: Where in the World?
What about the Cook Islands in the South Pacific? I'm not sure how cheap accommodations would be, I guess depends on the time of year, specials etc. My cousin visited the Cook Islands, said it was gorgeous!
I found these neat website where you can calculate the distance between places. The distance between Sydney, Australia and Rarotonga, Cook Islands is 3068 miles.  Here is the website: Calculate distance between two locations

Re: Where in the World?
knowing how much plane tickets cost $600 in the US would get you like 2 blocks.
