I have found that our return flights in September have been changed to now be returning via Perth instead of direct back to Brisbane. Pacific Blue advised me that even though we stop in Perth for 3 hours, our bags go direct on to Brisbane and that we actually clear customs there. My query is, has anyone been through this and gone through customs in Perth with hand luggage only and then reboarded by checking back in?? through international/customs?? or domestic? In our case we have the chance to see some close friends for a couple of hours and wanted to go through to have breakfast with them before reboarding to go on to Brisbane. Any help here would be greatly appreciated.
