Cheap Flights to Oceania
The continent of Oceania comprises of Australia, Micronesia, Melanesia and Polynesia. Oceania was the last continent to be colonized by man. Even though the Australian Aborigines have been a part of Australia for the last 40,000 years the inaccessibility of this gigantic island kept it hidden from the rest of the civilized world until just 400 years ago. Oceania is named as such because unlike other continents Oceania has an ocean that connects many parts of the region with each other. This mysterious continent of the southern hemisphere contains countries like Australia and New Zealand that are highly developed and those that are still worshipped for their raw beauty like Tuvalu and Kiribati.
