I did contact them and they said no hotel reservations but will be kept in a special section in the airport where I can rest during the layover

Solitin40:
Book with the airline directly and ask them for the hotel reservation I don say my own sha

Am yet to book,that’s why am asking to know how to go about it in order to have hotel reservation included

slimvim:
Please how did you book?...

Good day guys,trying to get a good deal for my ticket and finally settling with South African airways,however,am concerned about hotel reservations for the long layover,anything I can do to get them include it in my fare?

Thank you so much for this info

Amy3090:
they all depend. disability jobs have more shifts and pays well as much as forklift jobs. You get good pay in both. Ideally, you should be concerned at getting any job first and then when you integrate into the system, you will be able to choose what you want.

I am sending information out because so many people don't knw how difficult it is here. The benefits are there but you have to be strong. I almost came home initially because the stress was just unbearable, but a lot of people are really strong. If I could survive it, then anyone else can. come with both first and 2nd semester sch fees. Collect receipt for every accommodation fees, make sure you sign an agreement and keep your copy as so many people would want to prey on your ignorance by kicking you outta the house at will and may even call the police on you saying you are trespassing on their property, the police are gonna request for a rental agreement if you claim you are a genuine tenant.
First aid and CPR tests are not expensive, virtually every job would request for it. If you are a nurse or a doctor or those sort of professions with laboratory etc, then it wont be difficult for you to get a job in hospitals. Say you have experience when applying for a job. Just ask for aussie resume, let people here send you a copy of theirs.

overall, be very careful what to say and who you say it to. So many snitches and people are gonna misinterpret you and you are already on watchlist. If you can, DO NOT DATE ANYONE ON YOUR FIRST 6 MONTHS HERE. focus on your studies and try as much as you can to get a job. you know come to look woman or man. NA study and hustle, when everything is balanced, you will know and carefully start a relationship; if you wish to.

Remember to save money for a car and even if you are unable to buy one and an employer asks if you have a car, just say YES!

The cost is alarmingly high

Thanks
But what is white card,also,what does it cost to do first aid or aged care. The info you gave is not clear.

Ilias2:
Jobs to get without wasting 2 months are construction and landscaping jobs through agent.. i believe White card is more essential than first aid.With white card, you can get warehouse jobs. Factories. Construction and other labour job which you can easily save up to do age care course just like @ Amy described. finding age care course once you get there will take 2 to 3 month except on special cases......


And of course you can't rely on anyone.the terrain here is different but Nigerians need to show love..asians and kenya help each other but we have some Nigerians who likes to show off like they have been in Australia for a long time hence no new comer should be better than them....
But in all, we can only trust in God as this guy has said despite all issues ...............

closed

Thanks for the info
I will like to know, between the forklifting job and aged care, which is more profitable,although I have a medical background. Thanks

Amy3090:
The Australian government no longer allows students visa 500 to undertake those course from certain providers. You could be lucky to get this job with just first aid and CPR. Just make sure you apply for jobs here with an aussie resume and not Nigerian resume. Overall, this is not to discourage anyone but please, come prepared. It is not a bed of roses like your agent must have told you. Be very genuine and do not commit any crime at all. Avoiding dating any girl here for the first 5 months on arrival. Be very cautious and vigilant. Do not engage in any activity that will jeopardize your visa. When you enter, don't go about buying stuffs. Carry enough cloths as they will tell you that clothes are cheap, my dear consider the exchange rate and save as much cents as you can. Just buy pot, plates and spoons. Most importantly, yoir studies is priority, once you fail any course, immi will be notified. Try not to fail fail, I trust niaja on this shaaa.

Congrats bro
It appears we are heading to Adelaide together. Where is your campus

opsy24:
Beautiful day it is today with the news of my visa grant. I have regularly follow this thread for a few days now without making a comment. I decided to check for information on this forum after my application was lodged on the 11th of June, 2018. Alas the grant came in a day after CO contacted me for additional document.

I want to use this medium to ask for direction as I make arrangement to proceed to Adelaide soonest. Course to start July 23rd. Any Flinders senior should please assist......

Hope is not lost at all to all awaiting their grants this season. Trust in GOD and hold-on to your conviction that HE will surely come through for you. Great Job you guys are doing here.

Thanks man

Check vayama.com

Saw something slightly lower to Adelaide there. As for going to Melbourne first, I think you shouldn't have a problem with immigration once your have your domestic flight ticket handy. Sure they should ask question, just answer them what is it,its was economical for you. But note that it's like most local flight there give a single baggage allowance.

Tweak your travelling date by 1 or 2 days and you'd bemail suprised to get a huge difference in fares. Secret is be flexible.

Yes, I have seen other airlines but they are above 900k.
Am only asking to know if I can get any cheaper deal. Thanks

bellong:
Book any airline of your choice to Adelaide directly.

Hello guys, I was wondering the best airline to use to travel to Adelaide as I have only seen south African airline at 700k.
Someone is advising that I can land at Melbourne then take a connecting flight to Adelaide but am skeptical about how that might go with the immigration. Anyone with similar experience can advise me please so I don't make a mistake. Thanks. It's a student visa by the way.

I have not oo, still hoping for a better deal. Any info from your end?

adeomoade:
Have you decided?

Baba, thanks joor, getting flight ticket dey barb my hair now

tobe4real:
i’m in flinders..,wat’s the go?

Congrats
Is your school flinders and what course please, thanks

Sirbantu:
Just keep calm I applied 25th of April and I got my grant 2days ago,I am hopeful you will get your grant before Monday.The funny thing is my immi acc still shows further assessment even when I had received the grant Msg.My school resumes 23th of july also.

Thanks
I guess this means I will have to book my connecting flight from Nig. What happens if I have a delay in one of the layovers and miss my connecting flight, what would be the solution to this.

adeomoade:
you also need a debit card with your name for online booking on Egypt air. weekdays tickets are cheaper than weekend. you can still get $1040 to Melbourne. Melbourne to Adelaide using Tiger air or Jetstar for around 150AUD ( Extra luggage of 40kg inclusive).

Maybe I will just go to their office thanks
Also wondering if there would be hotel reservations included in the pay for layovers

foliat:
Use tripadvisor...but your payment would be with credit card or dollar card. Alternatively if you reside in lagos go to Egypt air office in VI.

I keep getting stuck at the departure and arrival section,

OK, Thanks.
Haven't been able to access eqypt air site since today.
The connecting flight, how do I go about booking it since unforseen circumstance can delay my landing time in Sydney?

adeomoade:
Use Egypt air. Lagos - Sydney for less than 400k. Then get another flight to Adelaide.

somebody help!!!!
few flights i found to Adelaide are over 900k
any advice on how to get a fair deal?
thanks

How much

Solitin40:
All the best bro and get ready for the challenges When you land here do not stop asking questions not only from Nigerians but from other Guys from Africa and Indians People will lie to you give you wrong infos and some will give you authentic ones listen to them and do your research well don’t trust anyone like that trust yourself and get already for the Cold if you don’t smoke at all you will by force by fire don’t get me wrong I’m not talking about weed or cigarettes here but when you land you go understand make I go make small money jare time is money here

For everyone who wakes up every morning asking, God, when will it be my turn.. For everyone who one thing or the other is holding bound, I decree this morning, let yours come in Jesus mighty name, that God of supernatural provision who gave me every resource more than I anticipated shall supply everything you need, in Jesus name.
I release speed your direction.
Amen..

Ameeen
Thanks bro
How prep, have you booked your flight. I don't even have a date yet oo

nogara:
Congrats bro. The feeling is always great. I know that sense of fulfilment hovering around you, it could only be God. I am so happy for you. For everyone here who have deligently passed through the rigorous road to Australian study visa application, I pray your grant fall on you on any date you wish for it to come. Remain blessed.

Thanks
Applied 5th of may and resumption date is 23 July

foliat:
Congrats bro......when did you apply and whats your start date. Please share your time line.

We meet in Aussie soon

GodBlessEdoBoy:
Oga Kessel, it's very simple, fabricate your papers too and get your grant. Ask questions if you don't know something. ignorance kill most Nigerians, for your info, once an AL1 institution clears you and give you CoE, then you are good to go and apply for your visa without SOA. The embassy may or may not request for it while your application is being processed.
I shared my timeline to encourage someone out there. Sorry you choose to be a doubting Thomas but I give God Almighty the glory for what He has done for me.
I hope you get your grant someday and we meet up in Aussie. One love.

Sorry sir/ma
I refuse to believe you. It's either your time line is fabricated or you are not giving us the full information because never have I heard or read anywhere both on or outside NL that Australia gave out a student visa without SOA, please come out clean.. Thanks

I no know say na so body dey do person when grant show... Even hunger no green catch me since 11am.

Am already packing my bag and baggage.. Australia we go.. Flinders is the uni

Thanks guys y'all have been super helpful and encouraging.
