Title: Interstate games - cheap flights
Post by: 🏅Dooks on January 24, 2017, 01:48:51 PM
Anyone thinking of heading to an interstate game in 2017? Just a heads up that Jetstar have an Aus Day sale on which coincides with a few of our interstate games.

http://www.jetstar.com/au/en/deals/australia-day-sale

Adelaide and Sydney $49, Gold Coast $59, Brisbane $65, Perth $109.

I'll probably be up in QLD afor a week or two in July which also coincides with our Gold Coast game, so the sale has come at a nice time  ;D

Never been to Metricon in its present state Dooks. This will be my first visit

I've only been there once and that's when we sold a home game there back in 2004 I think it was and we played Adelaide = pre building the stadium as it is now for the Suns

I disagree.

Seats are roomier and far more comfortable that Jetstar

Also suggest people use Uber to and from Metricom
Just spent 2 weeks on the coast e.g. magic millions
Uber works great up there

Apparently Virgin usually fly to the gold coast for $109 including luggage. Jetstar are $59 + 40 for luggage. Seeing as though I am staying up there for a while i think Virgin is the way to go. More seat room and food and drinks too.

And you don't have to board from a holding yard of both rednecks and Middle Eastern passengers.
Go the Virgin, Dookenbauer
