Gay Abandon on Virgin Flight to Sydney Mardi Gras

3 February, 2010 Martin Kelly 1 Comment

The cost of being gay used to be social now it’s financial. But in a nice kind of way. Virgin Blue is running a special Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras flight between Melbourne and Sydney on February 25 on which a one-way ticket costs A$199 including “refreshments, goodie bags and ‘very special’ entertainment from ‘Leave It To Diva’.”

They better be good because DJ857 passengers will be paying A$104 more than those on other Virgin flights leaving around the same time (on today’s prices). You could buy a lot of, um, other Mardis Gras stuff for that kind of dosh but the flight’s sure to be fun. PS: How bad is this Virgin Blue PR headline: ‘Up Up and A Gay – We’re Boeing to Mardi Gras’. It’s for real.

- Sydney, November, 2020 -

Work is under way on Short Term Thinking, the first Australian event focused on short stay accommodation.

It will be an action-packed day where all sectors of the industry can meet, learn and network, setting up their year ahead with new relationships, contacts and prospects.

Space has been blocked for mid-November in Sydney.

While a lot can change between then and now, we're confident we'll be able to run a flesh and blood event with live streaming for those who can't make it.

Because final capacity is understandably uncertain at this point, please register your interest to be put on a non-obligatory wait list and also receive the latest updates.

At the moment we're looking for foundation partners - please call event producer Martin Kelly on 0414 774 978 to find out more.
