Emirates has announced an exceptional offer for First Class and Business Class passengers travelling to Australia and New Zealand between now and 15 December 2010.

Wolgan Valley Resort & Spa, a stunning property outside Sydney, is offering a two-night stay for the price of one night, to Emirates passengers booked in First Class or Business Class on all flights to Australia or New Zealand. For the price of €1,385 (AUD 1,950) per room per night (based on double occupancy), guests can enjoy a two-night stay in a Heritage suite, including breakfast, lunch, dinner, non-alcoholic beverages and a selection of regional alcoholic beverages with meals and 10% service tax. Also included are two on-site nature-based activities per day.

Located within its own 4,000 acre conservation reserve, and nestled between two national parks bordering the Blue Mountains World Heritage Area, the conservation-based Wolgan Valley Resort & Spa sets new standards in luxury travel. The secluded resort -- opened in October 2009 -- features 40 individual suites surrounded by private decks, each with its own indoor/outdoor swimming pool. Its architecture is designed to be reminiscent of traditional rural Australian homesteads.

The €89 million (AUD 125 million) project was built on the philosophy of complete integration with its environment, and supports wide-ranging conservation practices. These focus on endangered species protection and the planting of thousands of native trees indigenous to the area, including one of the world's rarest trees, the Wollemi Pine.

Emirates flies daily from Malta to Dubai with a stopover in Larnaca, Cyprus. The Malta route gives a convenient connection to outgoing and incoming passengers from Australia.
