Queensland holidays from $1
20th July 2009
Lake Mckenzie, Fraser Island.
HOLIDAYMAKERS will have their chance to snap up Queensland getaways from just $1 when a new tourism campaign kicks off in Brisbane on Monday.
State Tourism Minister Peter Lawlor said Tourism Queensland's 2009 Ultimate Auctions will sell off holidays using an eBay-style platform with bidding starting at $1.
"As well as some great holiday destinations like Fraser Island and Port Douglas, this year people can bid for the chance to be a koala keeper for a day or to fly a Boeing 737 flight simulator," Mr Lawlor said in a statement.
"Bidding starts as low as $1, but the competition can mean that some products end up selling for top dollar."
Tourism Queensland chief executive Anthony Hayes said Queensland tourism operators were tapping into the popularity of eBay and increased use of the internet.
