Hiya

We are staying a night in Brisbane ans then heading up to Rockhampton and then Yeppoon

Here is the e-mail for singapore airlines send them copies of the visa in your passports and they will upgrade your tickets

[email protected]

I'm sure the airport will have a left luggage place where you can pay for your luggage to be kept overnight........I know there is at Glasgow airport and it is £5 per item for 24 hours

Hope this helps

Default Extra luggage allowance - Singapore Airlines

Hiya

I've just rang Singapore Airlines (0208 750 2708). You don't have to fax in advance if you haven't got time. You basically show the person at the check-in desk your unstamped visa and this will allow you to take 40kg per person. Children under the age of 2 are only allowed 10kgs.

There is a "left luggage" facility in Singapore Airport although he was unable to tell me the cost. We're staying for two nights so will leave the majority of our suitcases there.

Hope this helps,

Roll on the 31st October
