Hiya!
Congrats on gettin in. It really is a great job and I'm sure you'll love it. Being Brizzy based I can't tell you anything about what the move will be like, cos I've been here for about 20 yrs. Left Melbourne when I was 10. But wht I can say is that you are probably one of VERY FEW that have chosen to move south!!! There is an abundance of crew living in Sufferrer's Paradise that have moved north, or down from BNE but I can honestly say that I've never heard of anyone doing what you are about to.
MEL is a gorgeous city but in months to come, be sure to wear your Big Red Jacket or you'll freeze. The Cabin Crew down there seem lovely and the Base Manager is one of the most wonderful people on the planet!
The ground crew are pretty cool too and there is no shortage of "fully sick" facial hair designs amongst the ramp guys.
Have a great time and we'll probably work together soon. (Although never know it)
