Chile Volcano is affecting Australia

I wish it would stay in Chile.

New Zealand flights are cancelled. Melbourne was closed earlier this week but is now reopened. Tasmania flights were cancelled. Now some ash has been found in our state(South Australia) and could close Perth Airport by 3 PM this afternoon.

At least we're not flying anywhere. One of my friends and his family was stuck in Melbourne Airport, so they had to take the bus back to Adelaide/Victor Harbor since flights wouldn't reopen till Thursday.

air canada here is on strike.

I'm amazed about what you are saying, Alex...It's materially IMPOSSIBLE that ashes would reach Australia. At first, I believed that the ashes would float in the air at the closer areas of Chilean Southern coast, so Australia flyings were suspended if they were travelling toward this area. THis is what news were sayings and that was understable...But if they suspended flyghts to MELBOURNE and Tasmania, this is another tale. That's plainly absurd...Here there's something that they are hiding to us.
