Minister for Tourism Jann Stuckey said the service into Brisbane would provide a welcome boost for Queensland's tourism industry. "Brisbane and the bulk of Queensland tourism destinations are accessible and ready to welcome visitors," Ms Stuckey said. "These additional Etihad flights will continue to boost tourism by attracting more international tourists, which is critical to growing jobs in the industry into the future." tq.com.au GIRLS FLYING SOLO Sisters are doing it for themselves, at least where travel is concerned, according to the 2012 Female Travel and Lifestyle Report.
