Alvinology is Going On Scoot’s Inaugural Flight to Sydney, Australia!

Dear friends and readers, thank you for voting for Alvinology for Maurice Lacroix’s The French Job as the Chinese Blogger representative. You would be glad to know I won in the end with the highest vote and was picked by the judges as the first choice Chinese blogger!

Nonetheless, I gave up the chance-in-a-lifetime all-expenses paid trip to Southern France for two weeks due to family and work commitment….

And also because I got invited to go on Scoot‘s inaugural flight to Sydney, Australia! I will be flying off in a few more hours at 11pm tonight.

The dates for the two trips clashed and I made the decision to travel with Scoot and Destination New South Wales instead as I love their cool marketing folks.

Moreover, this flight is not just Scoot’s inaugural flight to Sydney, it is also Scoot’s inaugural passenger flight to anywhere in the world! I am glad to be among the passengers making history together with a fun airline brand and crew.

This would be my THIRD trip to Sydney, but I am still loving and discovering more of the city with each visit. If the weather permits, I would get to try sky-diving at Wollongong this time round. I chickened out on the second trip, but I regretted it when I got back to Singapore. This time, I am ready. 🙂

Stay tuned to this blog for more updates on both my flight experience with Scoot and travelogue in Sydney!
