Talking QantasLink B717 PPrune Charter

I am helping with the organising of a fundraiser for the NSW Chapter of the Australian Society of Philanthropy - the proceeds will go to a designated worthy charity (NSW based), to be decided at it's next meeting in Mid March.

As the downturn in domestic air travel is biting a little Qantaslink have agreed to make available at cost only a B717 for a 30 minute charter flight from Sydney on Saturday 10th May. The route will be decided on the day with respect to weather conditions, but is planned to be along the North Coast of Sydney, circuit direction subject to duty runway (we have an insider at Sydney Air Traffic Control helping us with this - thanks Stavros! ).

Already we have 100 seats sold to corporate clients in Sydney which mean we are making a worthwhile profit for the charities - the remaining 17 seats we have decided to open to those outside the corporate sphere who will be putting the icing on the cake to some needy cause. Because of this the cost will be only $50 per seat! Going to a worthy cause, and it is a 100% tax deduction!

Champagne will be provided on the flight courtesy of Vintage Cellars, and each passenger will receive a free Kodak Disposable Camera on board to remember the occassion courtesy of Kodak One Hour Photo.

The flight will depart from the Qantas Domestic Terminal at 10:00 on Sat 10th May, check in at the gate only. Tickets will be 'paper', actually a souvenir print courtesy of Go-Print, and will be sent out to you by mail well in advance.

If you are interested please email me for more information on how to book and get your ticket at: [email protected]

Be Quick!!
