The Flying to Oz Meet-Up Thread!

Chet Zar

So...a recurring theme on the board seems to be peeps looking to meet up with others on the long-haul over to Sydney, Perth, or wherever you're going in Oz! I mentioned it might be a good idea to set up a dedicated thread for people looking to meet up with others - and seeing as I've spotted another thread this morning - I said I'd set it up myself.

So, if you're looking to meet up with fellow travellers at the airport bar - state your:

1) date of travel
2) destination

Good luck!

Good idea.

In the slim chance there's some Irish going home for Christmas on this route be good to meet up.

Leaving Sydney on 21st Dec at 11am.

Going to Dublin via Paris via Guangzhou, China but......

.....7hr stopover in China

Lonely Planet's Thorntree Forum is good for finding people to travel with.

Got chatting to a guy on it a couple of years ago and we ended up bombing around South America for 4 months.
