Down Under Answers Will Offer 27 Incredible Vacations to Australia and New Zealand for Two Additional Months

BELLEVUE, Wash.—(May 3, 2010)—Since Down Under Answers cast the spotlight on the good-natured “Aussie vs. Kiwi” rivalry, demand for the jaw-dropping New Zealand and Australia vacation deals has been high.

As a result, the multi-award winning wholesale travel company, in conjunction with such esteemed travel partners as Qantas Airways will continue to offer a variety of Aussie vs. Kiwi vacation packages directly to the general public through June 30.

“The uncertain global economy has created a surprising boon for travelers, a ‘perfect storm’ of opportunity. People who never imagined it possible can now book a dream vacation to Australia or New Zealand, and they can book directly with DUA for even greater savings,” says Kirk Demeter, President of Down Under Answers.

Customers may choose from a range of New Zealand vacations, Australia vacations, or if indecisive, stays in both countries. Experienced vacation planners at Down Under Answers are also ready to help customize the perfect getaway. Packages start at only $999 per person (including airfare and five or six nights hotel accommodation, based upon double occupancy), but offers must end June 30, 2010,* or until sold out.
