2 Day Skip Trip Plan

 9-Sep plan

4:15 am collect Dan

4:45 Park


5:15 bag drop

5:40 boarding

6:05 depart 





 6-9-2022 Update
The party may not occur.  Looking at options to travel to Canberra

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Murray's bus is probably the easiest because it leaves from the domestic terminal.  It's the fastest at 3hrs compared to 4-5hrs for train options.  Bus is $55 compared to slightly cheaper train fares of about $33 incl the bus to central.

A train would be tones more scenic.  A bus is a bus and I hate buses. 


A) Henry drives to Sydney airport and collects us
b) Steal Jame's car
c) Murrays bus
3hrs $51 leave hourly from Domstic

TRAINS
There is track work and busses replace trains on airport line.  There is a bus to Central and also a bus to Sydenham
d) Long Distance Train to Canberra $55 plus Bus to Central ?1hr  $3 
Departs12:06pm 4hrs so a total of about 5 hrs.

e) Suburban Train to Campbeltown - Looks like they stop at Sydenham and don't need to go all the way to Central.  Also they do not seem to stop at Wolli Creek.  Every 10 minutes $5.06
f) Train to Golburn
Bus to Central $2.65
 Yes there are suburban commuter trains $6.51 but only a couple and the earliest is 5:03pm arrive Goulburn at 9pm. 
Long distance train to Goulburn 3hrs Dep Central at 12:06 Arr Goluburn 3pm $29 or $38 First Class.  This one does not stop at Sydenham.
g) New air ticket to Canberra
Virgin    $369   5:20PM
Qantas  $330   6am
Jetsar  $242 11:25am
Rex       $468 via Mel 3.5 hrs ouch
