Indulge in some well deserved R&R

It's true there's no place like home, but from time to time we all need a change of scenery to invigorate the senses and freshen our perspective on life. If you can't work an extended vacation into your busy schedule but are in need of a little down time, consider taking a short break (two or three nights) to one of the holiday hot spots in your own backyard. Departing from Brisbane, journey south and spend the weekend wining, dining and shopping in cultural capitals Sydney and Melbourne, or get back to nature with a great outdoors experience in the Red Centre where you can choose to stay in lavish luxury or sleep beneath the stars.

If you are a Sydneysider dreaming of a short getaway, head to sunny Queensland and enjoy a tropical reprieve in Cairns or Port Douglas, exploring the reef and rainforest at your leisure. Liven things up with a weekend of frivolity in the glittering Gold Coast where the air is warm and the nightlife is hot. Alternatively, keep things close to home and book a romantic holiday in the Blue Mountains where the sweeping country vistas and charming old-world towns allow you to catch your breath and indulge in some well deserved R&R.

Taking off from Melbourne, unwind in South Australia's wine country Barossa Valley or Clare Valley with a pit stop in quiet-achieving Adelaide. Go even further with a short break to Western Australia's Margaret River where laidback beachside living meets rambling vineyards, or soak in the sun with a bit of snorkelling on the side in Queensland's Whitsunday Islands. Whether you are chasing a quiet weekend away or inner city adventures, chat to a Flight Centre consultant today to arrange your short break from Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne or wherever you call home.
