1.- changing holiday from July to April to avoid bad weather
2.- Fly out on Qantas, BNE-SYD, a couple of hour Flounge stop
, then on the new QF1 SYD-SIN.
3.- spend one or two days in Singapore (have no idea what to do there yet)
4.- Fly Vietnam Airlines SIN-SGN-PQC (Phu Quoc island)
5.- Spend 5 days at the Peppercorn Beach mini-resort on the northeast tip of the island.
6.- Return to SIN on Vietnam Airlines then catch QF2 back to SYD then on to BNE again.
This plan includes:
- doing longhaul on QF which family is comfortable with
- Peppercorn appears from reviews to be just the right thing - Viet cuisine and relaxed quiet beach setting
- a day or two in Singapore to maybe take the ladies shopping (My wife and my two daughters - have no sons to support manly activities such as fishing) This would give a great contrast to the isolated resort part.
Any comments or warnings/advice on my updated plan? Especially what to do with a day or two in Singapore?
And re connections at SIN - is 2:05 hrs enough to connect from an inbound Vietnam flight to an outbound QF flight? (travelling both in business if that changes anything) ?
