QF 512 Sydney - Brisbane
[複製鏈接]
|
Free flights on mileage come at a cost ... an early morning flight out of Sydney. Thankfully, I can check in up to 15 minutes before departure, not like the 60 minute guideline i usually get elsewhere around the world. As I've already done online check-in the day before, I left for the airport as late as I could. With only a 15 minute train ride from Circular Quay, the airport was easily and quickly accessible.
After a short acceleration, we took off ... a bit unexpected it would be so soon.
Drink and cookie for breakfast, and a neat bag that turns from serviette to garbage bin.
As we neared Brisbane, I noticed a lot of neat developments and lots of small rivers with some man-made elements. Soon I realized this was Gold Coast, and Q1 became visible.
We passed Brisbane on the left side, headed out towards Moreton Island, then turned back to land.
Brisbane airport is divided into 2 buildings - the domestic terminal and international terminal. However, the two buildings are not close to each other, and it is not possible to walk between the two. A train service connects the two terminals with the city and further to Gold Coast.
The flight was short, lasting an hour. However, there were drinks and a light breakfast served, which was a bit surprising, as I expected American-style no-frills service even for a traditional carrier these days. As it was ANZAC weekend, the flight was full. I didn't like the design of the arrivals area though, as luggage would let released in an open area where non-passengers can fully access. It would be quite easy for outsiders to steal luggage amidst the crowds. |
