    And I do not normally carry $16,758 in my wallet. For a 1 way trip, I guess that means I'm moving to Austrailia for life.

    That is crazy. Considering that it is a 15 hour flight (roughly 14 hrs 30-35 min), that is $1,117 an hour. Not even lawyers make that much!

    In fact, a non-stop coach ticket is about that cost... $1100 (US).

    How much would it cost to ship yourself in a mail container? Smile

    Mercy, while I couldn't afford the flight, I might be willing to pay a "door fee" just to look around. Smile
