WHERE TO FLY

Time is precious on FIFO. Making sure to maximise every moment I reccomend the destinations below. Your Fly Home FIFO flight can be late, but you will still make your 11pm holiday flight out on the same day.

Yes you will fly overnight, you might need to change planes, but you will wake up somewhere amazing, and have views or a cocktail within an hour of getting your luggage.

I personally don't have the time or the willpower for long transfers or wasting time waiting to get to the fun bit. I want to get off that plane and be thinking "OMG is this my life" as quick as possible.

Maldives 14hr flight

Komodo Island 4 hr + 45 min Flight

Germany 24hr flight

Egypt 17hr flight

Switzerland 23hr flight

Philippines 9-11hr flight

Belgium 24hr flight

Rome Italy 23 hr flight

Bali - 4 hr flight

Thailand 8hr flight

The longer list....

Egypt, Jordan, Geneva and Bern in Switzerland, Innsbruck Austria to Ski or Mountain Bike, Val Thorens to Ski, Ibiza Spain, Barcelona Spain, Majorca Spain, Corfu Greece, Santorini Greece, Rome Italy, Venice Italy - which is actually about 2.3hrs drive to the Italian Dolomites for Ski and Hiking, Maldives, China Shanghai, Tokyo Japan, Phuket and Phi Phi Thailand, Siem Reap Cambodia, Hanoi Vietnam, India, Laos Vientiane, Johannesburg and Cape Town in South Africa, Mauritius, United Kingdom, Paris France, Sri Lanka, Chile in South America, Buenos Aires in Argentina, Rio de Janeiro any time of year but February for the Carnivale, Belgium for Tomorrowland, Amsterdam at any time of year but summer for the EDM festivals, Germany to race the cars at the Nurburgring Nordschleife, all the castles and also to explore the amazing mountains near Munich and Oktoberfest, Split Croatia and in June the biggest EDM and boat party, Germany for the biggest Rock and Metal Festival on a car racing track. Albufeira Portugal, Budapest Hungry for everything and especially those spas, Prague Czech republic. The list goes on, but these are phenomenal bang for buck and easy in your time off.

Warning: Europe is a solid 24 hour flight, so if you are going on your 8/6 you will need to consider what you want to do there to make sure you land in exactly the right spot! If you have a little more time, you can multi-city at least 3 places on a 2/2.
