Titanic Tour of the Barossa [April 12, 2015 - Wine tour by Buzz]

What time does the bus get to the airport?

From Post #73:
"....Alternatively we will now return to our point of origin via the airport where those heading home will disembark. Don’t forget your luggage stowed belowdecks. After saying our goodbyes, we will make one more stop at the Hilton should anybody wish to leave the tour here. Our final stop shall be North Terrace at approximately 5:00pm."

[I did find that part, on my trawling, even if I didn't know the departure point. ]

Travelling Sat QF763 CBR-MEL (arr1130) / MEL-ADL QF685 (dep1355)

Anyone transitting MEL at same time?

You may see me in the J lounge, although I am on the 12:05 departure...

 

[penegal]

Of course my tickets haven't been issued yet, but I assume QF will get around to it in the next ~14hrs...

QF683? I'm on that. Look for the carry-on in the lounge with the tasteful pink flagging tape. Coming in from HBA on QF1502.

From Franklin Street you could walk to either Victoria Square or Cnr Pirie & King William (closer I think) and catch the free tram to the Convention Ctr (stops outside the Casino then a short walk).

Except that I need to return the car to Hertz by the time the bus goes - so I need to drive down to Hertz Downtown

You're keen! 25 minute window, not sure I would risk it, isn't there a later flight?

Well the bus was supposed to be back at North Terrace by 5, so hopefully airport by 4:30. So if we're late and get to the airport at 5 he'll still have time...

Worst case there is another one at 6pm so nothing to worry about.

That's the one... I will be the clueless looking person

It is a flexible ticket, so if I miss it (or it looks like I will), there are two more QF services to MEL that night.

And it begins. HBA QP this morning.

 

[QF WP]

It begins for me as well. Onboard VA1342 to ADL in J (2D). Loved PB this morning, walked to the front and straight on

 

[RooFlyer]

I see your VA iPad in 2D and ?raise you a QF one in 1D.

 

[TomVexille]

On the train to get the bus to the airport

 

[boomy]

Landed on time to a beautiful sunny day in here in ADL, a very good start to the weekend. Checked in online at Hilton, no suite upgrade but allocated an exec room on the exec lounge floor, good enough for me. Now just need to finish the boring work bit before the fun begins. See you all tonight

 

[Buzzard]

I'm just about to go play with a chainsaw so unless I take an arm or leg off will meet you all at Curry on Currie.
