With the middle of winter sneaking up on the southern hemisphere, long sunny days and warm temperatures might seem like a distant memory. To help you escape the doom and gloom, we’re teaming up with four bloggers (Mr & Mrs Romance, Young Adventuress, Flashpacker Family and Y Travel Blog) to bring you expert hints and tips on how to get away this winter. We’ve also got an Instagram competition to give away $2,000 worth of flights.

Here’s how it works:

Step 1: Post a photo on Instagram that best represents ‘summer dreaming’ to you. Maybe it’s a picture of the beach, or perhaps one of you sipping a cocktail or cooking up a storm on the BBQ in your own back garden. It’s completely up to you. Add a caption that best sums up the photo.

Step 2: Follow us on Instagram (if you’re not already!) Then tag @cheapflights in the post, and use the hashtag #CheapflightsWinterEscape to enter the competition. Entries close on 18th July 2016 at 11.55pm BST.

Step 3: Our team of expert bloggers from Australia and New Zealand will help us choose the winning image.

Good luck!

Just so you know, by entering this competition you’re agreeing to our terms and conditions.

Announcing the winner

We want to send a big “Thank You” to everyone who participated in our #CheapflightsWinterEscape competition.

Considering every submission carefully (and believe us, it was hard work as we loved all your entries), our team of bloggers helped us to select the best entries and based on that we voted for our favourite submission.

So big congratulations to @nutty_nel who got the most votes from us based on her fun and creative entry.
