A Long Drive To Bondi!
A well-dressed Italian tourist on his way from Hongkong to Australia in November left his aircraft at Port Moresby con vinced he was in Sydney.
Before he realised where he was, the aircraft, a Qantas Electra, had taken off without him.
Police said the man told them he had not known the plane touched down between Manila and Australia. He had seen all the natives at Port Moresby’s airport and “naturally” had thought he was in Sydney.
Police said the mistake had been realised when the man called for a cab and asked to be taken to Bondi. The tourist went on to Australia the next day—by air!
