First Visit!!!
Hi
My daughter and family moved to Perth in Feb this year. We are planning a visit for Feb 2007. As it will be our 40th wedding aniversary we are thinking of doing a stop over on the way back. So we could really do with some ideas from you guys also any tips on where to look for cheap flights etc. Also last of all car hire it is best to use airport or local??? Thanks

Congrats on the wedding anniversary for a start, even if it is a bit early!
As far as a stopover - I would highly recommend Singapore, we stayed for 3 days and loved it, I wish we'd had a couple more days in reflection.
Cheap flights, try any of the following:
www.airline-network.co.uk
www.asda-travel.co.uk
www.austravel.com
www.cheaptickets.com
www.expedia.co.uk
www.ebookers.com
www.flightcentre.co.uk

Have fun!

Would agree about Singapore - fantastic place. Even the airport is worth hanging out at for a few hours

Re: First Visit!!!
Congratulations for 40th Anniversary, hope you have a good trip.
Patricia, when we did our reccie, I booked internal flights before we left. I checked prices out with both Virgin Blue and Quantas which I haven't got links for now, but if you do a search, they will come up and then that will give you the prices. They are very reasonable, not sure about Perth to Syndey and can't remember our fares, but I know I was impressed!
All the best
