FAMILY ODYSSEY

FREQUENT FLIERS WILL agree that flying with Singapore Airlines (singaporeair.com) is an apt way to begin a memorable holiday in Australia’s New South Wales. The airline offers daily seamless connections to Sydney from eight cities across India, and your world class experience begins the minute you set foot in the aircraft. Stay entertained with your favourite TV shows and movies, and bookmark them so that you can pick up where you left off on your return flight. Savour delectable meals 30,000 feet in the air, use the inflight Wi-Fi to stay connected, or simply slip into a cosy slumber in spacious seats that come with ample legroom across all cabins. The airline also has special child-friendly meals and activity packs to keep the young ones happy in the sky.

Famed for a glistening coastline and lush national parks that house a variety of flora and fauna, New South Wales ticks all the boxes for a fun-filled family vacation. Take its capital city Sydney, for instance. There is a generous dose of art, history, and culture at the iconic Sydney Opera House—which celebrates 50 years this year—whose white facade shines against the deep blue waters of the harbour. Inside, a range of shows awaits. In fact, every week, this UNESCO World Heritage Site hosts over 40 shows! Think operas, ballets, and even comedy sets and rock performances.
