Welcome to 9Travel: A letter from the editor

Kerri Elstub

When it comes to travel, the planning is almost as fun as the holiday itself. Almost!

I love planning travel. Doesn't matter if it's a weekend away or an overseas adventure, I'm all in. I feel like something is missing if I'm not planning.

There is so much research to be done!

First you have to narrow down where to go, finalise your budget, start looking at airfares, train tickets or car travel. Where to stay? Central or further out for a better deal? Where to go, how long to stay? Where to eat? What to bring?

Do I want adventure or do I want to lie on a beach? Do I want to move locations every single day or just unpack once and cruise away? The details and the information are endless. So today we launch the newest site in the Nine.com.au family... 9Travel.

9Travel should be your first destination when it comes to planning your next holiday.
