Using Cheap Flights to Get to a Great Fiji Vacation

]]>

Paradise doesn’t have to cost a fortune. Cheap flights can take you the island paradise known as Fiji where visitors will enjoy a true island getaway. When you think of Fiji you think of white sand, cloudless skies and palm trees. And that is exactly what you find in Fiji.

A Tropical Getaway Dedicated To Tourism

Tourism is the top focus of the economy of Fiji, as is the case for most tropical islands. The best time to visit Fiji is generally between March and November. During this time the weather is almost always guaranteed to be warm and sunny. The “soft coral capital of the world” has been a mecca for tourism for decades. Yasawa Islands are the most popular of the nation’s islands, formed by volcanic activity over 150 million years ago. It is easy to see why Fiji is the most popular South Pacific tourist destination.

Best Fiji Islands For Cheap Flights

When looking for cheap flights to Fiji it helps to choose an island offering a wide selection of activities and accommodation. You can find a cheap flight and end up on an island with a limited choice of hotels and have to travel to other islands for the activities you want to enjoy. The end results is spending more on getting to do what you want to do once you are there.

If you choose an island that has all of the accommodation and activities you are interested in, you will get the most out of your vacation at a reasonable price. Denarau, 20-minutes from the Nadi International Airport, is the most popular destination among the Fiji islands. Visitors will find a fully-integrated resort area accessed by a brief walk or drive over a small bridge. Travelers will find numerous holiday activities including deep sea fishing, diving, swimming, a premier golf course and over 670 acres of beautifully landscaped tropical gardens.

Couples, Family And Group Deals

Fiji can be a great destination for couples, families or groups traveling on a business vacation. Another way to save money on flights to Fiji is to get a package deal. Some deals are especially made for couples or families. Group rates can be found for business travelers looking for a tropical retreat to get the creative juices flowing.

Explore The Culture, Save More

Avoiding the popular tourist destinations is another way when looking for cheap flights. Those looking to experience local flavor can find it on Viti Levu, home to the countries two major cities Suva and the port-town of Lautoka, the nation’s capital. Local tours are available and there are a number of dining and shopping choices to keep visitors occupied.

Cheap Flights Any Time Of Year

Those looking to get away for a Fiji vacation do not have to just settle for the off-season to find travel deals. Fiji has a tropical climate and moderate trade winds year round. The humidity is not really a factor. Temperatures remain fairly constant, only fluctuating about four degrees between summer and winter. April, May, June and October are the driest months in Fiji. Christmas tends to be the busiest travel time in Fiji, but cheap flights can be found out of most major cities any time of the year.

Online travel and airline websites are your best bet for a cheap flight to Fiji. In some cases the accommodation such as hotel and travel arrangements can be made fom there as well once there. It is best to plan ahead of time to get the best deal and best selection of travel dates. If you are planning to go to Fiji as part of a holiday you should plan at least 3-4 months in advance to get the best prices. The closer to the date, the less flexible prices are.

Honeymoon Packages Rarotonga Cook Islands – How to Select a Great One

Rarotonga is the main island in the Cook Island group and as the beautiful tropical island that it is, provides a great destination for weddings, honeymoons and generally relaxing sun filled holidays.

The South Pacific and the Cook Islands in particular, have become more of a focused tropical destination for holidaymakers worldwide and as market awareness increases for the South Pacific basin generally, the strengths of the Cook Islands are being recognised.

Most resorts in Rarotonga are now fully optimising not only their accommodation properties, but are realising the value of providing the “total wedding and/or honeymoon package”. Many of the wedding packages have what you would normally include in the way of wedding services, but many also provide a wedding co-ordinator who can make sure the whole process is in place and organised by the time of your arrival on to the island. With Honeymoon Packages, the emphasis is often on arrival atmosphere at whatever property has been your choice, most acknowledging the occasion with a bottle of bubbly, a small gift or maybe petals scattered across a turned down bed, with chocolates on the pillow – and of course fresh flowers never go amiss!

It does pay to do comparisons when selecting a tropical destination in the South Pacific because the differences can be many and selecting one that actually represents great value, takes some time and effort.

1. Some properties keep their normal accommodation rates and have “value added items” which they then discount down and submit to their websites for publication.

2. Another option is for accommodators to discount not only the “add ons” but also their nightly accommodation rate and in these cases, there is usually a minimum stay requirement (i.e. 5 nights) if guests want to receive the full package value.

3. Yet others discount nightly rates, and then list their normal inclusions anyway whether you would be on a honeymoon package or not, with just maybe one tour, massage, or dinner voucher added.

Whatever option you decide on, there are some great packages to be found for a romantic escape in your tropical Cook Island destination vacation.

There are also many private beachfront villas available should you decide on the destination of the Cook Islands, from the more basic through to what some might consider to be the ultimate romantic tropical island vacation properties. These are mostly self catering and with the lagoon and white sandy beach at your doorstep, it is hard to imagine a more perfect setting for this very special time in one’s life.

Most private villa accommodations do have the same services provided that one would expect in a larger resort such as full daily servicing, tour desk, dining options and office facilities for all your questions and required information.

Finally it is worth of note that a lot of South Pacific Cook Island Honeymoon or Romantic Escape Packages, are available as “internet only” specials and apply for direct bookings with the property only. They are often not available through a travel agent or wholesaler.

Finally whatever romantic escape package in the South Pacific you choose, there is no doubt that just being in the Cook Islands will add a very special dimension to your vacation.

Carolyn has been the Marketing Manager for initially Reflections On Rarotonga and then more recently for Rumours Luxury Villas & Spa Rarotonga. Carolyn has 10 years experience in the marketing sector for 5 star accommodation and as the position has been a full time one over the 10 years, has worked through significant changes in the methods of marketing that have become more effective in an ever changing world.

Carolyn was born in New Zealand but has lived for the last 9 years in the Cook Islands and the blend of travelling between New Zealand and the Cook Islands has given valuable assistance to marketing trends and being able to implement these in the 5 star markets. She has travelled extensively through the USA, Europe and more recently Indonesia, which has also been of significant assistance in gaining marketing experience when staying in similar 5 star properties to the one she is marketing. http://www.rumours-rarotonga.com/

Class Reunion Quotes – Top 7 Tips For Choosing Great Sayings When Planning Your Reunion Party

If you’re planning a class reunion, sooner or later, you will be looking for wording to add to your save the date cards, website, emails and even favors.  A great quote may work to inspire your classmates to attend your reunion party.   Here are seven ideas for selecting just the right quotes for your big event.

1. Don’t get discouraged if your favorite search engine doesn’t offer many choices if you type in the words: class reunion quotes.  In fact, you may not find any quotations that actually contain that phrase.  You might come across this one by Tryon Edwards: Every parting is a form of death, as every reunion is a type of heaven.  But that’s a bit heavy for a party.

2. Look for memories. In order to find appropriate class reunion quotes, you have to ask yourself what feelings you are seeking to stir in your former classmates.  Encourage them to rekindle memories of the good old school days.  Here’s some examples:

* Time endears but cannot fade the memories that friends have made.

* To reminisce with my old friends, a chance to share some memories, and play our songs again. – Ricky Nelson

* Fond memory brings the light of other days around me. – Thomas More

* When you remember me, it means that you have carried something of who I am with you, that I have left some mark of who I am on who you are. It means that you can summon me back to your mind even though countless years and miles may stand between us. It means that if we meet again, you will know me. – Frederick Buechner

* Recall it as often as you wish, a happy memory never wears out. – Libbie Fudim

3. Remind them of old friendships.  One of the biggest reasons for attending a class reunion is to reconnect with past high school buddies.  Search for quotes on friends, concentrating particularly on the sayings that emphasize those old, tried and true friendships.  Here’s some ideas:

* No distance of place or lapse of time can lessen the friendship of those who are thoroughly persuaded of each other’s worth.  – Robert Southey

* Nothing is as comfortable as an old friend.

* I count myself in nothing else so happy as in a soul rememb’ring my good friends. – William Shakespeare

* Never forget the days I spent with you. Continue to be my friend, as you will always find me yours. – Ludwig Van Beethoven

* We all take different paths in life, but no matter where we go, we take a little of each other everywhere.

4. Talk about nostalgia.  You can help your classmates reminisce by locating facts of events, prices, songs, sports and movies from your high school years.  Or you can find quotes with the subject of nostalgia, for example:

* The essence of nostalgia is an awareness that what has been will never be again. – Milton S. Eisenhower

* A trip to nostalgia now and then is good for the spirit. – Dan Bartolovic

5. Try a little humor.  A well-chosen funny quip can sometimes be more effective than a philosophical quotation.  Here are a couple of humorous ones that may work for you:

* Middle age is when your classmates are so gray and wrinkled and bald they don’t recognize you. – Bennett Cerf

* True terror is to wake up one morning and discover that your high school class is running the country. – Kurt Vonnegut

6. Listen to those old songs.  Music can stir up all kinds of memories.  So, you might borrow a line or two from a popular song from the year you graduated.  If none of them seems quite appropriate, then you could look up the lyrics to songs about missing you, friendship, or remembering the good old days.  Some possibilities would be Memories by Barbara Streisand, Reminiscing by the Little River Band and Please Remember by Leann Rimes. 

7. Use your own words.  You don’t have to quote a famous person to come up with a great saying for your class reunion.  Flip through your old yearbook and see if any of your former students or teachers have an interesting remark listed.  Brainstorm with your committee and see if you can come up with some wording ideas.  Ask your classmates who register online to leave a comment.  One of those might be just right for the event.  Finally, you can always use your school motto, if you have one.

At first, finding a great class reunion quote might appear to be a difficult task.  But it’s easy to assemble a nice selection, if you use these tips. Search for sayings with the right keywords, consider song lyrics or write your own catch phrase, and you’ll soon find you have a lot of choices.

You can find great class reunion quotes, party recipes, free printables and more at Linda Kling’s website www.photo-party-favors.com, as well as order personalized class reunion favors featuring fun facts from the year you graduated.

Day Spa & Salon Breaking NEWS: Great New Feature on Facebook

Re: Day Spas, Beauty Salons, Massage Therapists, Hair Salons – Do This TODAY!

Facebook has just announced Places, the long-awaited feature that brings location-based functionality to the most popular social network in the world. And, it has some interesting marketing potential for YOUR business.

According to Facebook, “Places is a Facebook feature that allows you to see where your friends are and share your location in the real world.

When you use Places, you’ll be able to see if any of your friends are currently checked in nearby and connect with them easily.

You can check into nearby Places to tell your friends where you are, tag your friends in the Places you visit, and view comments your friends have made about the Places you visit.

Connect with people on Facebook in a completely new way.”
How to Use Places

First of all, you or a Facebook friend in your group will need a smartphone. If you don’t have an iPhone, you’ll have to use the Facebook touch mobile site on a browser that supports both HTML 5 and geolocation.

You can add places, check in to places that already exist, and tag people who are with you.

If you have an iPhone or access to one, here’s what I recommend you do right away:

Get your Hair Salon or Day Spa location entered into Facebook Places immediately!

Just follow Facebook’s instructions below:

1. Access the Places application on your supported device.
2. Click “Check In.”
3. Click the “Add” button to the left of the Places Names search box.
4. Enter a name for the new Place as well as an optional description of it. Then, click the “Add” button at the bottom right of the page.
5. You will then have the option to both write a description of what you are doing at the new Place, and/or tag your friends there.
6. Click the “Check In” button to share your visit.

“Keep in mind that any Place that you create is public. This means that other people may see your created Place while browsing Facebook or the Places application.”

Once your location has been added to Places, either by you or by another local Facebook user, just go to the Place page from Facebook.com and click the link that says “Is this Place Page your business?”

If you claim the location as your business, it will become a Facebook Page. You can then post updates to people who like the Page, update your business information and more.

This is what makes Facebook Places so cool.

I really think Facebook Places is going to take off when the application is accessible on all devices and all countries.

For now, get your beauty salon location into the system. I’ll be sharing more updates on how to maximize and leverage Facebook Places as soon as more information becomes available.

Places – Who. What. When. And now Where.

Dedicated to making you more money with less stress,

P.S. Other Tips…
If you’ve got other early-use tips to share with our readers, please let us know about them in the comments section of our site. We’re eager to learn how people are using Places, especially when it comes to business uses.

What do you think is the best way to approach Places for people and businesses?
