Hi,
I'm looking at doing my first status run up the east coast, except its not really for status (I'm using up various MPD's and cancelled booking credits, I've done my research and come up with this itinerary:
--Saturday 28th August--
QF1010 - HBA - MEL
QF2138 - MEL - CBR (Another first for me, A CRASH8 flight)
QF1422 - CBR - SYD
DJ 965 - SYD - BNE
--Thursday? 16th September--
DJxx_ (Not Sure) - BNE - SYD
DJ1513 - SYD - HBA
My only concern with this is the connection time between QF1422 & DJ965, I called DJ and the desk staff said it should be OK! which got me a bit worried, on the plus side I don't have to change terminals as i'm arriving on a QantasLink service.
QF1422 Arrives into SYD at 14:40 PM
&
DJ965 Departs SYD at 17:00 PM
leaving a layover time of 2hr 20m, is this enough time:?: the prospect of missing cheap priced flights worries me. Does anyone know how busy SYD T2 is on a Saturday or whether QF1422 is usually on time or not?
A big rant for me I know, but I just want to be 100% certain before I book

F.Y.I: I will have checked baggage with me
