Adelaide Airport has finally opened their new terminal! Construction was done in October of 2005, the scheduled time for opening, however it was delayed due to some kind of contamination in the fuel lines that are used to refuel the jets. Now that the new terminal is open, you can finally access your plane via an aerobridge instead of walking across the runway. Especially nice on cold rainy days! Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

As of September 2005 there is a new bus service from the Adelaide Airport the the City centre and on to the O-bahn to Klemzig and Tea Tree Plaza and Golden Grove. The Service starts at 4.30am and runs every 15minutes. The best thing about this service is that it costs the same amount as any other bus, train or tram, just $3.50 (make sure you have some coins or smaller notes). You can use the ticket you buy to connect to any other public transport as many times as you want within 2 hours of purchase. This is a normal full-sized bus (not a coach) so there's not a lot of room for luggage. If you do have a lot of luggage a taxi might be better. Taxis from the Adelaide Airport to the CBD are reasonably cheap at somewhere between $10-$15 so if there are a few of you, you're better off. Leave a Comment

South Australia's Capital City, Adelaide is serviced by one of the premier airports in Australia. Named as the Australian Capital City's Airport of the Year, ADL is no slouch on the airport circuit. Great facilities, plenty of direct and indirect connections, and a larger number of international carriers bless this tiny regional outpost's main air center. It is a shock to me that small Adelaide (in comparison to Sydney/Melbourne) could have similar or better flight schedules than their bigger brothers. Way to go politicians fighting for SA! Domestically, ADL services Qantas, Virgin Blue, and Jetstar (the big three). Rurally, it has REX, National Jet, and O'connor for small hops. Internationally, Qantas, Cathay to HKG, Singapore, Malaysia to KL, and Air New Zealand if you are going to the "eastern states" of Australia, New Zealand. Leave a Comment

All three of Australia's great interstate trains (The Ghan, The Overland and The Indian-Pacific) service Adelaide. The Ghan crosses Oz, on a north-south axis, running from Adelaide (on the Great Southern Ocean) to Darwin (on the Indian Ocean). The Ghan's most appropriate motto is "The legendary journey through the heart of Australia". The Ghan runs from Adelaide to Alice Springs twice a week, and one of those times, it goes on north to Darwin. So from Alice Springs, you have two opportunities per week to travel to/from Adelaide, and one to travel to/from Darwin. If you have the time and the knack for an adventure, I seriously suggest that you take the Ghan either into or out of Adelaide. If you're traveling in first class (Gold Kangaroo) and you make advance booking, you can bring your automobile along on the train's motorail for a reasonable cost...something like A$100. For all you train lovers, here are a few Ghan facts, courtesy of "Platform Magazine", published by the Great Southern Railway Company of Australia... Adelaide to Alice, one night, 1559 km Alice to Darwin, one night, 1420 km Average length of train, 403 meters, 15 passenger cars + locomotive + motorail Average speed of the Ghan 85 km/hr Max speed of the Ghan 115 km/hr Weight of the train is 735 tons. (It gets heavier after dinner. : ) The basic routing of the train, starting with Adelaide and continuing to Darwin is as follows: Adelaide - Coonamia - Port Germein - Port Augusta - Tent Hill - Pimba - Kingoonya - Coondambo - Tarcoola - Manguri (near Coober Pedy) - Kulgera - The Iron Man - Finke River - ALICE SPRINGS - Tennant Creek - Katherine - Pine Creek - Adelaide River (a long way FROM Adelaide, mind you...) - Darwin Leave a Comment

by bijo69 Adelaide's public transport is excellent! You definitely have to take the beautiful old tram to the beach suburb of Glenelg which takes about 30 min. There are two city loop routes which are FREE and get you anywhere downtown! If you are planning to travel further, do buy a day ticket! It's just 6,60 AU$!!! Leave a Comment

 The Indian-Pacific passes through Adelaide by pchamlis All three of Australia's great interstate trains (The Ghan, The Overland and The Indian-Pacific) service Adelaide. The Indian-Pacific crosses Oz, on an east-west axis, running from Perth (on the Indian Ocean) to Sydney (on the Pacific Ocean). Adelaide's "slightly mid-point" status on the run is basically the "end" of civilization (until you reach Perth) heading west, and the first signs of city folk when you're headed back east. I'm sure, however that the citizens of Port Augusta and Cook would take issue with that notion. The Indian-Pacific's motto is "The adventure that spans Australia". We didn't ride on the Indian-Pacific during this visit. However, having ridden on the sister line, the Ghan, we feel completely competent in recommending the Indian-Pacific to those travelling anywhere across Australia on the Sydney-Adelaide-Perth line. The Indian-Pacific makes the Sydney-Perth journey twice weekly in both directions. If you have the time and the knack for an adventure, I seriously suggest that you take the Indian-Pacific on at least part of your transcontinental journey. I'd think that the Adelaide-Perth run across the desert of Western Australia would be awe-inspiring. If you're traveling in first class (Gold Kangaroo) and you make advance booking, you can bring your automobile along on the train's motorail for a reasonable cost...something like A$100. For all you train lovers, here are a few Indian-Pacific facts, courtesy of "Platform Magazine", published by the Great Southern Railway Company of Australia... Sydney to Perth, 4352 km (one way), the trip takes 65 hours. Average length of train, 403 meters, 15 passenger cars + locomotive + motorail Average speed of the Ghan 85 km/hr/max speed 115 km/hr Weight of the train is 735 tons. The emblem of the train is the wedge-tailed eagle. Its massive two meter wingspan symbolizes the epic journey of the Indian-Pacific. The basic routing of the train, is as follows: Sydney - Broken Hill - Adelaide - Port Augusta - Cook - Kalgoorlie - Perth Leave a Comment

by bijo69 The Indian Pacific passes Adelaide on its 4352 km long journey from Sydney to Perth. I took the train from Adelaide to Kalgoorlie and enjoyed the trip a lot. Just had a place in the "cheap" seater section, but it was comfy enough for me. There's a lot of legroom, the seats do recline and there's even a shower in the carriage! I had to change the date on my ticket and was pleasantly surprised that it was done without any problems nor a fee! Before buying your ticket, get a YHA (Youth Hostel Association)card. It saved me 50%! The train departs from Keswick Station which is a bit out of town. Leave a Comment
