Tourism New Zealand and Singapore Airlines Promote Family Travel

Tourism New Zealand has partnered Singapore Airlines for a new campaign highlighting New Zealand as the ultimate destination for family holidays.

The campaign invites families, couples and independent travellers to the South Island for a 100% Pure New Zealand experience.

Families can look forward to learning experiences such as stargazing and farm stays, while food and wine connoisseurs can go on a gourmet road trip. Sports enthusiasts and nature lovers can try the amazing walking trails in the varied coastal and mountain landscapes of New Zealand, while movie buffs can tour filming locations for The Hobbit and Lord of The Rings.

“New Zealand is a wonderful destination and offers a wealth of experience to travellers. We are pleased to work with Tourism New Zealand in this new campaign to encourage Singaporean families to travel more and discover New Zealand’s fun and exciting activities and extraordinary landscapes,” said Lim Meow Seng, Area Vice President Singapore, Singapore Airlines.

According to Mischa Mannix-Opie, Tourism New Zealand’s Regional Manager for South and Southeast Asia, New Zealand is a popular destination for Singaporean travellers. “New Zealand is known for its stunningly beautiful landscapes and the South Island of New Zealand totally delivers on these. Singaporean visitors not only enjoy the scenery but also the many activities there are to do in these landscapes. We hosted 35,968 visitors to New Zealand in the year ending January 2013 and on average the Singaporean visitor spends over 12 days with us. They really do make the most of what New Zealand has to offer,” she said.

The new campaign, which runs until 16 April 2013, offers not-to-be-missed deals ranging from Sin$938 for 6 days/5 nights South Island self-drive holiday to Sin$1,898 for 7 days/6 nights South Island tour.

Singapore – Christchurch round trip fares via Singapore Airlines are on sale at Sin$1,218 for travel between May and July 2013. Terms and conditions apply.
