ITINERARY
WEDNESDAY - 1ST NOVEMBER
Arrive at the Virgin Domestic Terminal (T1) by 11.30am to check in for our flight to Brisbane.
​
We recommend downloading the Virgin (or Qantas for those flying on the Qantas one-way group) prior to boarding. It is also recommended to download some shows/movies to on Netflix/Stan etc incase the aircraft does not have streaming.
​
​Upon arrival in Brisbane, we will be met by our Coach drivers and transferred to the Q1 Resort on the Gold Coast.
​
The drive will take approximately an hour, we anticipate arriving to the hotel between 9.30-10pm local time. If you would like dinner when you arrive, the best option would be to order Uber Eats/Door Dash etc on the coach to 9 Hamilton Ave, Surfers Paradise once we have left Brisbane and know our ETA.
Today was a travel day with the sole purpose of getting everyone over and ready to hit the ground running in the morning. We chose the later flight arrival as it was $238 cheaper per person than the earlier departure. It was decided the saving was worth arriving a bit later than we would have preferred, and hope with the time difference meaning we will be arriving around 7.30/8pm Perth time, no one will be too tired :-)
