when are you leaving?
 

There seems to be a lot of us leaving in the next few months - who knows some of us might even be sitting together on the flight and we might not even know:)

I just thought that it would be nice to have a chat if anyone was going on the same day.

We are flying with Emirates on 5 October to Brisbane.

Re: when are you leaving?
 

Were not leaving on the same flight. Hopefully heading out on the 20th October to Brisbane if our house sale goes through.

Re: when are you leaving?
 

We are hoping to fly to Melbourne in Jan 2005 if all goes well and we can sell the house. I have to validate by March 2005 so that will be the latest I can go.

Re: when are you leaving?
 

We fly to Perth early Nov. Haven't booked yet.

Cheers

We're flying out on 1st September with Singapore Airlines. Leave Heathrow late evening I think.

We are hoping to fly around 3/1/05 to Perth via Singapore hopefully - flights not booked yet as waiting for a buyer for the house. Hoping for the 3/1 or thereabouts so that the boys can have a little while to get to know the area before starting school.

cheers

THE PLAN
 

Looking at one way from Heathrow on the 26th Oct to Brisbane with Singapore Airlines. 12 o'clock midday.

Price for 3 adults (12 yr old daughter) & 1 child. about £1600.

Thinking of booking into serviced apartment for 2 weeks and getting mini bus up to Sunshine Coast. With all the cases, Golf clubs and my surf board will need the space!!!!

2 bed apartment with pool, playroom, free internet on the beach at Alex Headland $1500 for 2 weeks. Sounds ok?

As long as everything goes ok with the ct scan then we shall be:

Departing: manchester at 10.00 am 16th August 2004 via singapore with singapore airlines.Two adults ,two kids £1,541.00.

Arriving: Brisbane at "no idea" on the " not bothered " of august.

Just get me out of here before the men in the white jackets take me away.

Paul.

We fly with Singapore Airlines for Sydney departing 17th Aug (Heathrow)

We were originally planning to fly to Perth via Singapore on the same flight as you on the 16th August, but the House is taking longer to sell than we expected so we aint got a clue when we will be able to get away :mad:
It's soooooo frustrating :scared: :mad: :(

Cumbria, nice place, we're in morecambe......:)

Paul

We're in the sunny "seaside resort" ;) of Barrow-in-Furness. :D

I hope I am not outta order posting this, but....I flew from KL to Vienna with Lauda...they were aweful!!!!!

If you do go with them....make sure you take food and drink with you....they only came around with either at the very start of the trip and at the very end....nothing at all in between....I have never felt so dehydrated.....they begrudgingly gave me some water after asking a few times....The plane felt particularly cramped too.....

It was one of the worst trips I have taken.....

:)

Oh, and we leave LHR on 14/9/04 for Florida...there for 2 weeks and arrive Melbourne on 30/9/04

Hels

Worked a lot in barrow at the schools and college ( 6th form )

Paul

Park View, Alfred Barrow, St Bernards......all senior schools. :)

We're flying out on the 31st of August 2004 with Singapore Airlines. Heathrow to Singapore and then Singapore to Perth, arriving 1st September.

We'll also be the ones with loads of duty free. You are aware you can get a litre of Bacardi for £7. It's normally £14 ! Bring it on!!! :beer:

I'm flying out on the 6th september, manchester to heathrow to melbourne to canberra, well if i can still book the flight! :eek:

Hi Guys! We fly out of Heathrow with Emirates for a 3 night stopover too!! But we go 14 th Sept! If we get the chance will let you know how it goes!
Good luck!
Kirsty:)

29th Oct MAN - DXB - SIN - BNE.

Sadly it's a return flight as visas are a long way off, so we thought a holiday / recce / job-hunting trip (i.e. fishing for a 457 sponsorship) might be in order ;)

Planning on taking Melbourne in too.

I hope to fly to Brisbane in January with my daughter - visa permitting!!

Re: when are you leaving?
 

We are flying 25th August from Heathrow with Singapore Airlines, 3 nights stopover then flying onward to Brisbane on 30th August.

Can't wait :)
