Agents, set yourself up to take advantage of growing interest in Hawaii this weekend after the state is exposed to millions of Aussies relaxing in their ‘living rooms’.

Didn’t catch that play on words? Channel 10’s popular series The Living Room is airing a special Hawaii episode tonight (1 June 2018), meaning Australians country-wide are going to be extremely interested in learning more/visiting the destination over the next couple of days.

For consultants, that’s a HUGE opportunity to take advantage of that thirst for the Aloha state by potentially promoting Hawaiian offers over social media or in store windows.

We already know Aussies like to book Hawaiian holidays through Agents, so get proactive this weekend!

As part of the TV special, the entire cast of the program travelled to the Hawaiian Island of O‘ahu with Hawaii Tourism, Hawaiian Airlines and Hilton Hotels, while Doctor Chris Brown also explored the island of Kaua‘i by air, land and sea.

Members of the television ‘ohana (family) took part in several Hawaiian holiday experiences on O‘ahu, including a lesson on authentic Hawaiian cuisine, surfing on the north shore and an underwater adventure through the island’s tropical reefs.
