Best sites for travel to Aus
We have not been to Oz before but are just about to send off our work assessment papers. If we could afford it..... we would like to go and see Oz before the "final commitment". Any advice on which sites to look at to get the best/good travel deals?
(wife and 3 kids to support !)
(Bit behind on this sort of thing as previously just done the Euro caravan type of holiday)
Sorry if not supposed to ask this type of Q in this forum - no doubt somemone will let me know if out of order.

Hi there
This isn't a bad general website to start with http://www.australia.com/home_UK.aust?L=en&C=GB
and these aren't bad places to start for flights etc
www.travelbag.com
www.flightcentre.co.uk
www.opodo.com
If you do a search on here as well, you'll see this question is asked quite a lot so I'm sure there are loads of others too

www.austravel.com is a good one too - sometimes have offers available if you ring them, that aren't on the website too.

Thanks to all that replied. Keep 'em coming.
Anyone feel like gifting surplus monies to sponsor our travel to Oz for a loving family that would be ever, ever so grateful???
Yours in hope.............
