Overseas stars lure tourists Down Under in new push
Australian celebrity Robert Irwin, English television cook Nigella Lawson and other international stars are tempting tourists to the land Down Under. Shots of these celebrities set against iconic Australian landscapes are part of the federal government's newest tourism push to attract travellers from five countries. Advertisements featuring Chinese actor Yosh Yu, Ms Lawson and Japanese comedian Abareru-kun will air in their home countries, while Steve Irwin's son will become the face of the American campaign and wellness advocate Sara Tendulkar will star in ads broadcast in India. This $130 million push builds on Tourism Australia's Come and Say G'day campaign, which launched the lovable animated mascot Ruby the Roo. "Traditionally tourism campaigns have leveraged one famous face across every market but for our latest campaign Ruby will be joined by well-known talent from five different markets to showcase personal lasting memories of a holiday to Australia," Tourism Australia managing director Phillipa Harrison said. "These international stars combine with local talent ... to create bespoke invitations for five markets." Since the resumption of international travel, the domestic tourism industry has grown with the number of international arrivals expected to reach a record 10 million in 2026 and 11.8 million in 2029. More than 700,000 jobs and 360,000 Australian businesses depend on tourism. The teaser for this campaign was first launched in July during the prime minister's trip to China. Chinese travellers remain Australia's second biggest cohort of tourists behind New Zealand, figures from the Australian Bureau of Statistics show. "Tourism is the lifeblood of so many communities right around the country and creates hundreds of thousands of jobs," Tourism Minister Don Farrell said. "The previous campaign struck a chord with visitors, with Ruby the Roo bounding into the imagination of countless guests, encouraging them to book a holiday down under. "I know this iteration, featuring popular talent like Robert Irwin, will be a smash." The advertisements will go live in China from August 7 on TV and online.

Amid border tensions and terror concerns, is it safe for Australians to visit South East Asia at the moment?
More than five million Australians visit South East Asia each year, but a series of deadly events across the region has created a mixed bag of travel advice and warnings from the Australian Government. In recent weeks, many were shocked to see the rapid escalation in violence at the border between Thailand and Cambodia, two countries popular with Australian travellers. A ceasefire declared on Monday appears to be holding and 260,000 people who evacuated homes in the region are returning. Exchanges of heavy fire left at least 38 people dead, with soldiers and civilians lost on both sides. Horrifying imagery of the conflict has flowed to the wider world — showing explosions, rockets, and destroyed homes, businesses, even a hospital. Along with thousands upon thousands of terrified and displaced people. For the Thai Government, these are sights difficult to reconcile with the image it promotes of a holiday paradise which attracted some 800-thousand Australian visitors last year. And the conflict is just the latest cause for tourist concern to pop up in the country, which relies on holidaymakers to generate 20 per cent of its gross domestic product. In June, explosives found outside Phuket International Airport and elsewhere prompted the Australian Government to update its terrorism advice for Thailand. The whole nation is covered by advice to exercise a high degree of caution, with a note that popular tourist areas including Phuket and Bangkok may be targeted. While do not travel warnings are in place following the border conflict for within 50km of anywhere along the Thai and Cambodia border. 7NEWS visited the capital, Bangkok, last week to look into the latest with the ceasefire and make sense of the current travel advice for Thailand and the broader region. Thailand's Tourism Minister Sarawong Thienthong told 7NEWS Australian visitors had been rising from January, but in July saw a dip of 2 per cent or about 3000 people. 'First of all, Thailand is very safe, very safe,' Thienthong said. 'Cambodia and Thailand are like brother to brother countries, but they hurt us,' 'It's happened, but we are neighbours, and I think everything is going to be well very soon.' The tourism trade remained busy, but international arrivals had taken a hit in recent days, Thienthong said. 'Yesterday, I checked and about 7000 had cancelled.' 'But mostly Australians do not go to that area anyway, the most popular locations that Australians go to are Bangkok and Phuket.' 'Only seven provinces on the border are affected out of more than 70 provinces in Thailand.' About 300km from the border is Bangkok which is home to more than 10 million people, and in charge of the metropolitan area is popular Governor Chadchart Sittipunt. Sittipunt often runs 10km or more each day, and we met with him in a Bangkok city park where he was jogging. 'Today I ran 12km, all the way from home at 4.30am, so Bangkok is safe,' he said. 'The border conflict is a sad event, we didn't want it to happen, but from Bangkok it is quite far away.' 'We support our soldiers and people at the front line, but if you come to visit Bangkok you won't see any effect from that.' The governor recently played a prominent public role in helping with the aftermath of the March earthquake, which saw an office tower under construction in Bangkok collapse, killing 92 people. 'Only one building collapsed and it had some problems with the construction and design, but we recovered quickly from that event,' Sittipunt said. 'And we have seen improvements, now we have alerts and warning systems if an earthquake hit again or some other emergency. 'And our regulations are prepared for nearly twice that magnitude, so most buildings had no effect.' The collapsed tower was to be the State Audits office, a government building. Since the collapse about 17 people have been arrested with investigators pointing to corners cut on the building's construction. Just a few hundred metres from the now empty site of the collapsed tower was the scene of Bangkok's latest deadly tragedy on Monday. On the same day the border cease fire was declared and Thais felt they finally had some good news to welcome, Bangkok was rocked by a mass shooting. A gunman opened fire at the Or Tor Kor Market in Chatuchak, killing five people and then himself. It has been reported the man's wife is a vendor at the market and he held a long-running grudge with security staff there following an incident five years ago when his car was scratched there. His victims included four security guards and another market vendor. 'That was a tragedy, but I think it was a random thing that happened,' Sittipunt said. 'But in Bangkok that's not common, very rare.' Bangkok was the world's most visited capital city in 2024 and Australian man, John Gamvrogiannis, who has lived there for eight years now said that is because for the most part the city is safe and welcoming. 'Thailand gets a bit of a bad rap for being a place that's dangerous,' he said. 'I've always got my mum on the phone to me after reading some article or hearing something in the news, worried beyond belief about me living in Thailand, when actually I find it to be a super safe place.' 'You really have to be living in a particular way to find trouble here, it's a very cosmopolitan place, people are looking out for each other.' Gamvrogiannis, along with wife Arin, run one of Bangkok's famed rooftop venues Aesops. The restaurant was inspired by his father's Greek restaurants in Sydney of the same name in Double Bay and on Macquarie Street, with some added party atmosphere. Along with the skyline views, Green dancing and traditional plate smashing draw crowds. 'The idea is social dining, so fine dining is kind of done, and it's all about fun dining, so we want a space where people can interact,' Gamvrogiannis said. 'The tables are sturdy enough that you can get on, stand on the tables, smash plates, and party all night.' On Fridays and Saturdays, Aesops is usually a full house, with a mix of locals and tourists. But Gamvrogiannis fears tourists may be put off visiting Thailand by a perception that the border conflict is nationwide. 'It's such an odd thing when you live in a country like Thailand, which is so friendly and peaceful,' he said. 'So, it hit home, and it hit home for me, especially because my wife is from a border province.' 'You could see she was scared about what was happening and maybe impacting her family.' Gamvrogiannis asked her parents to evacuate to safety in Bangkok, but they stayed behind in Trat to help their neighbours. 'They're in good spirits,' she said. 'We're all just trying to get on with our lives, we don't want to be fighting with our neighbour.' Outside the Grand Palace in Bangkok, Brisbane tourists Emily Miller and Dani Aylward said they were feeling safe in the city. 'I guess we did have some concerns, but we were researching on the Smart Traveller website, and I spoke to a couple of people who said we would be fine just don't go to the border area,' Aylward said. Elsewhere in the region the Smart Traveller website warns of dangers of methanol poisoning from cocktails, after two Melbourne women died in 2024 after consuming tainted drinks in Laos. While terrorism advice is in place for Indonesia, the Philippines, Bangladesh, and Thailand. 'I think terrorism is a risk for every city, and we have to take precautions, but here there has been no incidents for a long time,' Bangkok Governor Chadchart Sittipunt said. 'And I think Bangkok is quite an inclusive society, it is a city where we embrace everyone, so we don't have any conflict between religion, or gender, or anything.'

New Australian domestic carrier Koala Airlines to launch from 'late next year', chief executive Bill Astling says
A new airline set to shake up the Australian aviation sector dominated by Qantas and Virgin Australia will launch from late 2026, according to the prospective carrier's CEO. Aussie travellers were delivered hope there will be a new carrier soon as news broke last year that Koala Airlines, the rebranded version of flying safari and charter operator Desert Air, was looking to break into the domestic aviation market. It follows the collapse of short-lived budget carrier Bonza, which failed to secure slots at Sydney Airport throughout its lifespan, and Regional Express entering administration after attempting to challenge Qantas and Virgin on major city routes. Fresh hopes of a new player in the aviation market have emerged as Koala Airlines' CEO Bill Astling said the carrier was likely to begin operations from late next year. 'We're not trying to be Qantas or Virgin – our model is fundamentally different, and that's why we've attracted the backing we have,' Mr Astling told The Australian Financial Review. 'We've deliberately kept a low profile – not because we're stalling, but because we're building something with a long-term, sustainable foundation. We've learned from the past – both ours and the industry's – and we're taking a disciplined, strategic approach. 'We're on track to start operations late next year. But we're not in the business of giving our competitors a 12-month head start.' The incoming airline's website says its strategy will 'fundamentally differ from previous entrants in a domestic market'. Koala airlines is taking a 'more innovative route' compared to the litany of low-costs carriers that have attempted to break into the local aviation market over the past 35 years. The airline, however, is yet to acquire planes suited for the domestic aviation market and has not revealed details about where it will fly to or from. Koala's entrance into the Australian aviation market follows Bonza failing in April 2024 and leaving hundreds of creditors, including employees, out of pocket. Bonza began operations in January 2023 with a low-cost model of operating a regional network mostly un-serviced by the other major airlines. Demand and the inability to expand the fleet of 180-seat Boeing 737s were among the reasons considered for the company's collapse. The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission in May revealed Qantas' budget subsidiary Jetstar cashed in on the lack of competition in the domestic aviation sector in the second half of 2024. Jetstar's operating margin was up 13 per cent from the six months up to December 31 2023.
