Is Europe Open for Travel? What Australians Need to Know
Recent world events may have created some hesitation for Australian travellers. However, the situation on the ground is far less dramatic than headlines suggest. Travel is continuing as normal. Airlines are flying, and hotels, attractions, and experiences are welcoming visitors. Europe is not closed - it continues to offer rich culture, history, and memorable experiences.
Flexible Travel Routes to Europe
Many Australians have traditionally travelled to Europe via Middle Eastern carriers such as Etihad, Emirates, and Qatar Airways. While some travellers may be reconsidering these routes, there are still numerous reliable alternatives through Asia:
- Australia: Qantas Airways
- Hong Kong: Cathay Pacific
- Singapore: Singapore Airlines
- China: Air China
- Japan: Japan Airlines
- Bangkok: Thai Airways
- Kuala Lumpur: Malaysia Airlines
Additional options include Philippine Airlines, SriLankan Airlines, and Royal Brunei, offering further flexibility and peace of mind when planning your journey.
