So... to the elephant in the room......

Does this mean I have to fly JQ :(

I could fly DJ with a horrible connection via SYD in an E90 (waste of an upgrade there)......

Or BNE is a live option.......

What are others considering??

I would hire a car personally.
Fairly good roads from BNE to the Hilton Surfers good car park underground at the hotel and drive to the airport next day

Hotel booked so I guess I'm platinum. :)

Just me, and I'm in for everything except the Kris Kringle.
 
I'm in. Flights and accommodation booked. Please put me down as Platinum.
 
I'm Platinum, flights and hotel booked.

I'm landing in BNE about 1.35pm on Saturday and flying out at 3.35pm on Sunday afternoon. Am happy to share a car there and back.

I don't drink so I should probably drive back at least. :D PM me if you want to share a car.


Two more of my QF vouchers used and of course I am flying CBR-SYD-BNE (and reverse) to maximise SCs and QFF points.
 
Hmmm, can I be sneakily and take Mrs LW away for her birthday (25th) , drop kids at my parents and make a weekend of it with AF'ers?

Gold x 2 - will check with babysitters

Now confirmed Platinum x 2

Babysitters - organised
Room - booked on Exec Floor (with thanks to serfty's tip on Spouse Stays Free - saved $70), but as a humble Gold might struggle for an upgrade with all these Diamonds staying :D
Dinner - yes x 2

Doubt we'll see anybody much before dinner unless we run into you - want to have a quiet weekend to celebrate Mrs LW's birthday & EoFY. Sleep in the next morning.
 
Are you able to organise meal option for a GF Vegetarian?

If so, count me in as a Platinum...I probably won't stay the night (not much point given I live 15 mins away), but will def partake in all of the other festivities.

TG

I interpreted the 'v' to indicate a vegetarian dish. (not so sure on the GF though!)

GF bread is available at breakfast, so I'm sure that is no problem for them (perhaps forward notice may be wise).

We also live about 20min away, but have so far had 3 stays and 5 nights at Surfers Hilton. We love it....a mini break in Australias tourist capital, which we rarely get to see even though we live here!! Give it a try Travel Guru!
 
Confirmed platinum for;
Swanning_it
Swanning_it +1

Friday and Saturday night.......looks like no bonus deals just now, bummer.

I'll get around to it soon - I've been maltreating my synapses this week having had to cut code in JavaScript/Perl and, thus, have been rather weary ... :-|
 
Just a quick *bump* - Serfty - would you do an awesome Sertfy table please?

Cheers!
 
Just rebooked (seems the flexible rate had dropped a bit since my original booking.....)
 
Be aware those $164 rates are DAY USE:

Code:
DAY USE NOT AN OVERNIGHT STAY AVAILBLE FROM 9AM - 5PM
