~Shepherd~ Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 (edited) about $40 each way via taxi $16 to CBD via skybus http://www.skybus.com.au/ $160-$200 limo $15 to BBD via Jetbus, they charter also http://jetbus.com.au/melbourne/ I may be able to pick up one group free of charge and Im sure there will be others too ETA I think its really important to keep the costs down for interstate travellers especially. It is quite an expense and luxury for the average person to attend. Perhaps a payment plan to start 6 months in advance could be a good option for tickets? Bus hire to save on airfares? 2 accom. options within walking distance of the venue with the DOCA discount for group bookings? You certainly dont want to attend a bargain basement affair, so pre planing and budget options can be of great assistance rather than coming up with a great big lump a month or 2 before. I know that is up to the individual to organise generally, but easy payment options go down well with most 'average' people Edited March 15, 2010 by Chewbacca Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nekhbet Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 skybus is the easiest way and can take a decent amount of luggage, if you book accomodation hotels are used to interstate travellers and can recommend ways to get there quite cheaply. At least in the CBD there is everything, food, clothing, hairdressers, major public transport etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
