Hi all,
Just wanted to share this in case people weren't aware of this nifty feature - wasn't sure whether to post in deal or forums, please be nice I'm new to posting deals!
You can add the 'move me' feature to a booking (estimate cost is around $11 that they quoted for a MEL to BNE flight), in order to be put on an earlier or later flight subject to the info and conditions via the link :)

Move me
If you're an early bird, or a late bird, then add MoveMe to your flight booking for a small fee (when purchased or added to an existing booking more than 72 hours prior to the flight departure)
If you arrive at the airport too early then jump on an earlier service; or if you arrive after the check-in time has closed but arrive no later than 15 minutes after the flights scheduled departure time, then you will be moved to the next available service. If you choose to move to an earlier or later flight, and then fail to travel on the new flight, your booking will then be forfeited and you will not be entitled to a refund of your flight booking or the MoveMe fee.
MoveMe is only available for purchase from selected destinations and departure ports and is only valid for use once on the day of travel. You can do this for a fee during the booking process, via manage my booking, or by contacting our customer contact centre
How is this a bargain?
It'd be the same as saying 'I heard department stores have a nifty bargain called layby where you pay a small fee and then get to pay off your items over time???'
It's a purchased service/function. Not a bargain.
