Why These People Spent Thousands to Travel Nowhere

Strict border restrictions, lockdowns and general restlessness led “The Great Southern Scenic Flight” to sell out in about 10 minutes. Passengers boarded the plane in Sydney, Australia, and that's where they stayed. “Oh it's very upsetting for us because we love travelling … as soon as we saw this one here, Jason and I thought we've got to go on this one here and really have a great time and enjoy the time away,” one passenger said. Inside Edition Digital’s Stephanie Officer explains. #InsideEdition

Out of all the things these people could spend thousands of dollars on, they chose a flight to nowhere.

[@kindnesscupcakesandcrazy4720]

In my opinion anyone who has to spend money to go nowhere is a total knob.

[@yatsumleung8618]

The public should realize that planes just sitting on the apron (I say again, NOT "TARMAC"!) cost rent and DO need maintenance from time to time. Also, commercial pilots need to have certain number of flight hours in order to sustain their license. Large airlines can do it with simulators, while others such as Asiana resorted to flying their EMPTY A380 just to keep their pilots qualified! Whatever the situation with Qantas, this is definitely a good commercial strategy to keep their pilots qualified, and make some cash from desperate travellers at the same time.
