#favouriteitinerary The SilverKris First Class Lounge at Sydney Airport is an absolute standout, offering a luxurious and seamless pre-flight experience. From the moment you step in, the ambiance feels refined yet welcoming, with a sleek design and a peaceful atmosphere that makes it the perfect escape from the busy airport. The drinks selection is top-tier, with a fantastic range of wines, champagnes, and expertly crafted cocktails. But the real highlight was the food—the laksa and lobster scrambled eggs were nothing short of spectacular. The laksa had the perfect balance of spice and richness, while the lobster scrambled eggs were indulgent, creamy, and packed with flavor. It felt like a fine-dining experience rather than just airport lounge food. Service was impeccable, with attentive staff ensuring that everything was taken care of without being intrusive. The lounge truly delivers on every front—comfort, amazing food, premium drinks, and world-class service. An absolute must-visit for those flying first class with Singapore Airlines!

Location: ibis budget Sydney Airport Atmosphere: The room is small and clean with a comfortable bed, which is sufficient for a short stay of 2 nights. It's within walking distance to the domestic airport and there are fast food restaurants nearby. As a budget hotel, don't expect too much. We were very satisfied with our room. You can walk to the Mascot subway station to get into the city. 📍Address: 5 Ross Smith Ave, Mascot NSW 2020, Australia

#1月好去地方2025 Thanks to my friend, I took Emirates Airlines from Sydney to Christchurch and was able to enter the "Qantas First Lounge". It was really grand and spacious with a great view. All meals were made to order and cooked to order. Although the taste was average, the sense of honor was 100 points! The difference between the first-class VIP lounge and the first-class VIP lounge is that the privacy of guests is more valued and there are fewer people, so you can enjoy the experience in a very relaxing way. The shower room in particular is a must-try, it is almost at the level of a star-rated hotel, with bright marble space, and it feels especially refreshing to take a shower! After all, Sydney is the headquarters of Qantas, so they can have such a large VIP lounge, and the first class and business class are separated, which makes the feeling more honorable. It is an unforgettable experience. #AustraliaTravel #SydneyAirport #QantasFirstClassLounge

As a oneworld Emerald and First Class lounge, it’s one of the few that really stands out in the oneworld network. The à la carte dining experience is top-notch, and the views of the airport are fantastic—you can watch the airplanes as you relax. I’ve visited several times, and the only downside is that I haven’t been able to book a spa treatment yet; it seems to be not in the business hours or has a long waiting time. I’m hoping to try the spa on my next visit. Overall, it’s an outstanding lounge experience and highly recommended for those with access. #favouriteairline #thingstodo #couplestrip

The food was perfect, and the staff was lovely. I was surprised to meet the manager, who is from Thailand. She was very helpful in helping us choose a special menu. Thoroughly enjoyed the fried prawn burger, though the price is quite high, it’s somewhat substantial. The scrambled egg with chilli oil is something different, the sourdough tastes nice. The food is incredible, the atmosphere joyful and the service friendly and efficient. The owner is lovely and accommodating, and the waiters don't mind alterations to the menu. I can't wait to come back #australiatrip #hiddengems #sydney

#mysgmemories SilverKris Lounge, where luxury is a way of life. This is no ordinary airport oasis; it's a realm of indulgence for the discerning traveler. As I entered, a lavish breakfast spread awaited me, complete with perfectly prepared eggs and crispy bacon. The pièce de résistance? A bottle of the finest champagne, a testament to the lounge's commitment to luxury. Sipping that golden elixir, I couldn't help but bask in the opulence of the SilverKris Lounge. It's a haven where every detail is designed to make you feel like royalty.

How to: e-Passport at Sydney Airport Hello everyone, We just came back from our first trip to Sydney. It’s the end of winter. The weather is great, with a minimum temperature of around 10 degrees. If it’s sunny during the day, it’s around 20-22 degrees. Just bring some extra warm clothes because even though it’s winter, Australians will be sunbathing on the beach if it’s sunny. From this trip, we’re going to share how to get through immigration at Sydney Airport with an e-Passport, which is very convenient. We’ll share other tips such as booking flights, where to stay, and getting around the city, etc. in future posts. - This time, we flew with AirAsia X because we got a promotional round-trip ticket including luggage and food for around ten thousand baht. It should be the cheapest airline for direct flights. They use the A330-300 with comfortable seats, but we recommend booking 5-6 months in advance. - Bring a pen to fill out the immigration form (yellow) that the flight attendants will hand out on the plane. (Don't forget to apply for a Visa before you come to Australia) - When you arrive at Sydney Airport, you will see an e-Passport machine (as shown in the picture). Scan your passport and answer questions on the screen (in Thai). Once you answer, you will get a ticket. Keep it safe. - When you reach the immigration checkpoint, go to the e-Passport counter and insert the ticket into the machine. The door will open so you can go through, take a photo, and wait for your luggage. It takes less than 10 minutes in total. It's very convenient. - At the last checkpoint before exiting, give your passport and the filled-in immigration form to the officer to check, then you can exit. #TravelAustralia #TravelAbroadByYourself

Really really delicious gelato, desserts, and drinks Sydney dessert cafe Cielo Dessert Co. ♥️ I happened to find out about it and visited but I thought I would have regretted not coming here… ㅠㅠ All the gelato they sell is handmade and I could feel the sincerity in each dessert! I also ordered coffee, and they brought it to me with care Also, it is located on the first floor of the Meriton Suites Hotel, so it is easy to find and there is a park across the street, so it was great to take a walk after a cup of coffee 🥰🥰 #Overseas travel #Australia #Australia travel #Sydney #Restaurant #Australian restaurant #Restaurant tour

#asiabudgetchallenge Flying out of Australia? Don’t skip the airport duty-free! Australia offers some of the cheapest duty-free prices globally — think perfume sets from AUD 60 and spirits under AUD 40. Compare that to city retail prices and you’re easily saving 20–40%. Tip: Buy on departure, not arrival, for the best selection. Set a budget of AUD 70, and you can score gifts, skincare, or premium liquor — all tax-free!

#Overseas Hotel #Sydney Hotel #Sydney Hotel Recommendation “Meriton Suites Mascot Central” Meriton Suites Mascot Central I recommend an apartment with a kitchen Reason for recommendation!! It is more competitively priced than CBD. ㅎ - Close to the airport - Close to the subway station - There is a large mart & liquid shop / . Woolworth - Business hours: 7am ~ 10pm There is an Asian mart & cosmetics store right in front . BWS Mascot - Business hours: 9am ~ 9pm (It varies depending on the day of the week, so you need to check Google Maps) - Cost-effectiveness as much as the location (I am satisfied with the large living room kitchen and washing machine) ▶️ Reasons to choose (Advantages) 1. If you need an apartment or kitchen (Spacious accommodation, cost-effectiveness, I want to buy groceries at the mart and cook) 2. Departure the next day, accessibility to the airport 3. The train station and mart must be close. (It's easy to get to Circular Quay, Museum Station, and Central Station) 4. I want to use the washing machine/dryer 5. I can shop for snacks and cosmetics ▶️ What are the disadvantages of your experience? 1. If it's a short trip, definitely go to the CBD..; (It takes some time to go to the hotel to go to Sydney duty-free shop or to shop or rest) 2. They don't clean every day, once every three days! (If you're running low on towels or cutlery, just call and they'll respond right away)

#JuneTravelSupport Kingship Coffee was a hidden cafe in Sydney that really felt “local”. The exterior is simple but full of emotion, and the interior is warm and cozy, so it’s a comfortable atmosphere to come alone to drink coffee. I ordered a flat white and a special pastry of the day, and the coffee was strong but soft and had a clean aftertaste, which was perfect for my taste! The barista said that the beans were roasted herself, so I was even more excited, and I was very satisfied. The pastry was also full of fillings, so I was amazed after taking a bite… The staff was also very friendly, so the overall experience was even better. It’s a quiet and relaxing space, so I highly recommend it to coffee lovers and those who are looking for a local cafe. Address: 1/1 George St, North Strathfield NSW 2137 Opening hours: Mon-Fri 06:00–15:00 / Sat 07:00–14:00 / Closed on Sundays

A fit for purpose with an excellent selection of beverage options across fresh juices, wines and champagnes! Hot food is okay with chicken being the only meat option with rice but cheese, crackers and salad were plentiful! There were also hot sandwiches / toasties options. Plenty of seats including high chair bar areas for dining! 7.5/10 overall! #sydney #travel #lounge

#June Travel Support Fund Sydney McDonald's🍟 I thought McDonald's would be similar everywhere~, but Australia's dessert lineup was a bit different, which was interesting! In particular, what I ate was the chocolate custard pie, which was crispy on the outside and full of thick chocolate custard on the inside 💣 It wasn't just chocolate, but a bit 'real' chocolate, so the sweet + bitter balance was good. The custard inside wasn't runny either, but a bit thick, so the texture was good! 🥧 Be careful because it's hot... I almost burned my mouth 🤭 but it was so delicious that I forgave it. Australia seemed to put a lot of thought into the McCafe dessert lineup, and ordering was easy and completed at the kiosk! It was perfect as a small snack, and if you're curious about desserts, it's worth trying at least once. ☕️ It would probably go better with coffee! 📍 Sydney CBD McDonald's (multiple locations) ⏰ Many stores are open 24 hours. Varies by store!

Beautiful Sagrada Familia

bag already ripped before getting to the airport some times catch public transport has its downsides 🙁. hope fully when I'm on the way my luck changed🙏

📅 Itinerary Day1：Sydney Opera House Day2: Manly Island Day3: Market St 🏨 Meriton Suite Mascot Central 🍴 Steak, The fish and chips 📌 When visiting Sydney and need an accomodation, recommended where we stayed. At Meriton, most of the important ammenities are available, very convinient a few minute walk to supermarket, restaurants and train station.

I've visited so many times that I've lost count, and every time I go, I can't help but say, "This is the place." The coffee always guarantees quality, especially the flat white, which has a perfect balance of richness and smoothness that wakes me up with the first sip. The aroma of the beans is deep, and the taste is clean without any heaviness, making it enjoyable every day without getting tired of it. The pastries are all high-quality as well—I'm particularly fond of the croissants and lemon cake. It's also fun to see the seasonal menu changes. Whether I'm rushing to work or taking a quick break, the warm and welcoming atmosphere always touches my heart. This place isn't just where I drink coffee; it's where the rhythm of my day begins. Address: 1/1 George St, North Strathfield NSW 2137 Hours: Mon–Fri 06:00–15:00 / Sat 07:00–14:00 / Sun Closed

#MayTravelSupportKingshipCoffee is popular for a reason. It is located in a quiet alley, and although it looks ordinary from the outside, once you step inside, you will fall in love with the aroma of coffee first, and then fall in love twice with the comfort of the cozy space. I ordered a flat white, and the balance was really good because the strong espresso was mixed with milk smoothly. The barista kindly explained the coffee beans, and the service overall felt sincere, which was even better. The bakery items also felt like they were made in-house, and I felt like they were made with sincerity! The atmosphere of the cafe itself is quiet and warm, so it would be comfortable to go alone or with a friend. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a good local cafe. Address: 1/1 George St, North Strathfield NSW 2137 Opening hours: Mon–Fri 06:00–15:00 / Sat 07:00–14:00 / Closed on Sun

After leaving the country, there are countless shops for tourists to browse and shop without worries. There are also many choices in the food street; there are Chinese, Western and even Japanese sushi. It is a very humane airport that won't make tourists hungry. Although there are many customers ordering food, the food is prepared very quickly, so there are always batches of people coming in. #An airport where you can eat whatever you want
