Planning a Melbourne and Sydney visit from 39,000 feet

6 September 2025 ·

I’m on my way to Melbourne and Sydney for a week of business travel in Australia. I will have Monday afternoon off in Melbourne and Thursday afternoon and Friday morning off in Sydney. Since I’ve never been to Australia, I thought I’d ask ChatGPT for some advice on planning my afternoon visits.

While I’ve heard many people talk about creating itineraries with ChatGPT, I had never tried it myself. I find the experience magical. With a few questions and prompts, ChatGPT generated an afternoon schedule for me based on my hotel location and personal preferences. My final request was to generate an iCal file, including location information, that I could import into my calendar, which it did.

I did all of this while flying at 39,000 feet, with a super-fast, stable internet connection. Wow!
