Hi everyone,
As you’ve likely seen, the situation in the Middle East has intensified over the past 24 hours and is still developing. We’re actively keeping a close eye on all upcoming departures, including official travel advice, airline updates and information from our on-the-ground partners.
We understand how unsettling travel disruptions can feel. If any part of your journey is affected, please know we’ll be across it and will manage everything as smoothly and efficiently as possible on your behalf.
Right now, we’re reviewing bookings that may need immediate attention and will be in touch with those impacted as soon as we have clear updates.
Airspace is currently closed in several affected areas, and Smartraveller has updated its advice for those destinations.
During times like this, it’s important to rely on accurate, verified information — and that’s exactly what we’re here to provide.
Thank you for your patience and understanding while we work through this together.

Yesterday was a volatile day on the stock market, not only here in Australia but around the world.

The Australian Dollar ($AUD) was impacted dropping below $US0.60. The Australian Dollar was trading at EUR0.55.

It has been reported by Economists that there will continue to be some movement with the $AUD.

What does this mean ?

It does mean that suppliers, wholesalers, and other partners including cruise lines may adjust pricing quickly to bookings where full payment has not been made, due to currency fluctuations. These changes could be made with or without notice to MTA.
