Amazon SQS - Disaster Recovery

We are evaluating Amazon SQS for one of our applications. We will be persisting some messages in SQS for a maximum of 10 hours a day (one of our 'consumers' can only process between 7am and 9pm).

It appears that persisted messages are distributed across multiple availability zones in the same geographical region. Is there a way to achieve replication across regions in SQS? I read Amazon's white paper on DR and it has no mention about SQS.

Each SQS queue is currently limited to a single region. Each SQS queue is replicated across multiple Availability Zones though.
