To be honest with you, I find flying is not a bad idea at all.

<<Insert flame here>>

Few weeks ago I planned to go to Sydney but could not get a seat on XPT
(surprise!!) forced me to fly. But by doing so I saved one day
accomadation and able to gunzel around as soon as I got to Sydney. I
booked an early fly out of Melbourne and was gunzeling around Newcastle
by midday.

Same thing last year when I paid a visit to Sunshine state, I booked an
early fly to Brizzy and by the end of that day I had visited my old
neighbor, gunzeled at Roma Street and hang around Gold Coast.

But I definitely won't take plane to anywhere else.(ie. Adelaide) Only
those routes serve by XPT.
