Leaving Australia

Arrived at the airport and got to jump the queue because we had Scootbiz tickets. The few extra dollars were worth it just for the queue jump. After checking in we had coffee with Greg. As it's Greg's airport and he has connections, he arranged another little queue jump for us at the screening point. Normally I'm pretty good with the 100ml liquids limit but completely forgot about checking the size of the toothpaste and had to 'surrender' it. Once we got through there it was on to the immigration point. We got a lovely man who commented that we were going for "a very long time". Now all the formalities were out of the way we had a quick shop for a few things that we needed (e.g. toothpaste). Then we sat at a bench near the gate and called a few companies to update our details and before we knew it, it was time to board. We got on the plane and settled in to our slightly larger, more comfortable Scootbiz seats and we were ready for our flight to Singapore.Read more
