I booked the Air Zealand Business Class glitch from earlier this month for 3 weeks in Australia for Pesach time.
Any thoughts ideas suggestions etc are appreciated!
I land on 4/16 at 11am into MEL and depart 9:30am on 5/5.
The general framework that I am building around is do something 4/16-4/18, I am going to a friend for the sedarim in Sydney that takes up 4/18 at night to 4/21.
Then fly somewhere else for Chol Hamoed which is 4/22-4/25, spend 2nd days either back in Sydney by friend or anywhere else in that area, will likely contact the shliach in Brisbane, Cairns, and Gold Coast to see if they have meals I can crash for 2nd days. Also there is a program I can join in Gold Coast
https://aussiepesach.com/, but that is $3k for the last 2 days. Ouch.
Then go somewhere after Pesach, I have 4/28-5/5.
