Fuel Price Surcharge as of 4 August 2008

Great Southern Rail announces that as a result of continued high fuel prices the Fuel Price Surcharge for tickets onboard The Ghan, Indian Pacific and The Overland will increase.

All new bookings made on or after 4 August 2008 will attract a higher Fuel Price Surcharge per sector. The Surcharge will apply to all guests travelling on all ticket types in all levels of service on the Indian Pacific, The Ghan and The Overland.

Existing bookings, and tickets booked before 4 August will not be affected by the increases.

Smoking Policy

In February 2006, we were instructed by Western Australian Authorities that there is to be no smoking on our trains in their state from the 1st March 2006. Accordingly, we are implementing measures to enforce a total smoking ban on the Indian Pacific whilst it is in Western Australia from the 1st March 2006.

All Great Southern Rail trains will become entirely smoke free from the 1st October 2006. This will comply with most state government legislation requirements.

Smoke Free Southern Cross Station

As of the 1st March 2006, smoking will be prohibited within the Southern Cross Station precinct. This follows the introduction of Victorian Government laws to prohibit smoking in all workplaces and all covered areas of train platforms, tram shelters and bus shelters. The Southern Cross Station Authority has decided to extend the ban further to include outdoor areas of the precinct to remove confusion regarding designated smoking prohibited areas. All boundaries will be clearly marked with no smoking signage.
