Info here is based on official SQ press releases and advise from members such as yourself. I'll just update it based on new advise.
Sure - will update if I hear anything further: am trying to decide if I should change flights from SQ491 (regional F) to SQ453 instead on that date (maybe 77A)!
There is nothing wrong with coming through customs at Adelaide Airport. My last trip when i was working in Singapore it took me 35 mins from leaving the aircraft, lining up at the customs desk, getting my bags, getting checked by quarantine and out the door. Not bad in my opinion when it was a full flight. I actually was out the door before the crew came through and they get a priority lane. Adelaide airport is a lot better now than what it used to be.
Many international travellers must wonder what the hell they have come to Australia for if they arrive via MEL.
Does MEL have "smart gates" installed yet?
I used them for the first time in SYD last month, and I must say if it wasn't for my bags, I would've been through customs and quarantine in less than 15mins from chocks on.
Whilst not speaking from experience, but having been airside at the same time as most of the international arrivals, customs & quarantine does appear to be rather painless.
It can't be that bad really, I mean afterall, when was the last episode of [I]"Border Security"/I] that featured anything at ADL?
