Scenario: After finishing up working late or dinner, you walk over to the private Aura transit lounge on Collins Street/Martin Place. Lounge opens 60 minutes prior to departure. Relax, enjoy a complimentary nightcap beverage. The exclusive lounge maintains a professional but relaxing and luxurious ambience. Take a private hot shower if you wish (slots can be pre-booked on the Aura app). From 15mins before departure, you can board at your leisure and settle into your private cabin. 9pm sharp the doors close and you depart. Enjoy the features of your cabin and luxury restroom before changing into your pj's, reclining with a fresh, cosy sheet, duvet and pillow, then dimming the atmospheric lights as you drift off to a restful slumber. Cruising through the night. In the morning, wake when you want. Grab a light breakfast box from the snack bar. The sun starts to rise. The vehicle arrives at Martin Place/Collins Street earlier than scheduled to ensure a safety buffer for traffic. You are welcome to loiter in your cabin or move to the lounge for a complimentary shower and hot coffee. You have an hour to float around the lounge. Set off for your day when you are ready. There are bookable bag lockers and meeting rooms if you want.

Cruising through the day, you occasionally gaze out your window at the beautiful Australian countryside vista passing by, bathing your brain in bliss. On demand, you can visit the complimentary snack bar (which includes iced coffees, fruit juices, water, fruits, cookies/chips and light lunch boxes) and the luxury lavatory. There is room to stand and stretch in your cabin, but of course, you should wear your seatbelt when seated. The sun starts to set as you arrive on the outskirts of the city.
