🛳 I'm currently over in Sydney to attend the Cruise360 conference (an annual huge cruise conference) for my first time and I'm staying at the Novotel Darling Square. Its in a great location as Darling Square is full of lots of eateries and the hotel is next to the ICC Sydney where the conference will be. The room is very comfortable, light and airy. The hotel has a gym and an indoor swimming pool.
I've just bumped into some SQ crew in the lift who said they love staying here so, as SQ accommodates their flight crew in this hotel and they enjoy it, that's certainly an endorsement!
Here are a few photos and, as always, please contact me for travel enquiries: [email protected] and 021 078 7736 💕

Last week I was up in Auckland at the Helloworld Frontliners two-day conference where, along with hearing from inspirational speakers, I received useful updates from many of our industry suppliers. In fact, there is never enough time to see them all (which I find a bit frustrating) so here are the ones that I luckily got updates from:

✈️ Airlines: Air New Zealand, Qantas, Singapore Airlines, Emirates, Fiji Airways, Lufthansa, China Southern, Air China, China Eastern, Malaysian Airlines and Air Tahiti Nui.

🛳 Cruise: NCL, Princess, Scenic, Explora Journeys, Silversea, CrosiEurope and Imagine Cruising

🌍 Travel Insurance: Allianz and Kiwi Holiday Insurance

🚗 Car Rental: Avis and Hertz

🚍 Touring: Innovative Travel and Intrepid Travel

🚅 Rail: Railbookers

I also got to try the Air New Zealand Sky Nest again so now I've sampled both the top bunk and the bottom (ground level) bunk. Its going to be so interesting to hear passenger feedback once it is launched soon on the new aircraft operating the ultra-long-haul flights between Auckland and New York.

So my knowledge is topped up and I'm ready to share it with my valued customers 💕

Emirates innovation is going from strength to strength! :)
Now it is elevating it's award-winning Premium Economy experience even further with the launch of the world's first electrically powered Premium Economy seat, featuring a full-height adjustable privacy screen between every seat. Debuting on their newly received Airbus A350 aircraft, the new seat combines industry-leading innovation with elevated comfort, giving customers greater control over their personal space.
So, very impressive to have the privacy option in premium economy and please let me know if you'd like to try it.
