- INFORMATION -
Heaps of information is now available regarding the finer details of the trip! Please make sure you've read the Info Sheet (sent via E-mail) completely and filled in all surveys on time. If you have any additional questions on top of the Info Sheet, please refer to the AusPAX FAQs.
- SCHEDULE -
15 JANUARY to 23 JANUARY 2011.
ALL ATTENDEES HAVE THE OPTION OF ARRIVING AND DEPARTING ON ANY DAYS WITHIN THIS TIMEFRAME, but the longer you stay, the cheaper prices become for everyone!
- LOCATION -
BYRON BAY, NSW.
Accessible from Queensland, Byron Bay marks the easternmost point of Australia and features some absolutely gorgeous beaches! You can fly into Brisbane or Gold Coast and there are heaps of buses and trains that will get you out to Byron Bay. Please contact #pipe via PM or in the thread if you need more information.
- TRANSPORTATION -
We recommend the idea of groups of out-of-towners split car rental cost and carpool to the final destination. For those driving from Brisbane or Gold Coast, we would suggest they time their departure alongside the possibility of picking some out-of-towners up at the airport on their way. Hashpipe has provided a good summary of transportation options to Byron Bay here.
- ACCOMMODATION -
Accommodation within our target range of $250 to $450 per person for the whole trip has been found. More details about money transfer and deposit contributions will be made directly via PM and E-mail.

ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY WOULD REQUIRE ME PAYING SOME SORT OF LATE FINE ON THE TRANSFER
mhmm new thread smell.
That branch deposit was me yes, the lady at my bank was throwing all this advice at me to avoid fees and told me to take cash out and deposit it directly
then tried to make me open another account etc etc etc. :S
She is FREAKING OUT
As if going on holiday with a bunch of strangers from the internet were such a thing to be worried about!
Introduce me to her
I will show her how normal and cool we are

:rotate: :rotate: :rotate: :rotate: :rotate: :rotate:
It's why the lady told me to do a direct deposit
She also told me to open a specific type of savings account which may net me $200 over the next year
she was pretty rad

"30% of Australians believe people walked with Dinosaurs"

ROBIN FALLS
WHO KNEW
