SkyBus gone up again [Up to $24.60 one way]

Used this joke of a service again last night and instantly regretted. First bus full, huge queue of people, next bus 15 minutes away, that one was full too and turning people away. Cramped, uncomfortable and I think in future I should pick people out of the skybus queue and offer to pool UberX
F1 weekend! I’d rather stick pins in my eyes than head to MEL for this weekend, AFL Grand Final and Melbourne Cup. Probably ok for Moomba…

But yes, picking up at QF T1 can be hit and miss at the best of times. Spencer St to the airport is usually ok.

This has been my routine for a while now - good to stretch the legs, and can be done all undercover in Melbourne's variable weather.
May as well just keep walking and get the 901 bus to Broadmeadows. Skybus don't deserve the money
 
I'll do the 901 bus when time and timing permits. (I'm not going through Broady when it's dark.)
Went through there the other day around 9:30pm. Didn’t feel too dodgy but understand the point. A few police hanging around.

In any event the 901 is more erratic after dark. Every 15 mins until 20:50 then 21:20 then 22:20 then every 30mins. The one hour gap makes the service less attractive after dark anyway.
