A website with exactly one job.
Currently in the air
Strictly, this route misses the Nullarbor Plain by some 480km — it runs south of it, over the Great Australian Bight — but “somewhere over the Bight” doesn't have the same ring to it.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does this website know?
Grace's flight confirmations from Qantas and Jetstar are read by a small, tireless robot, which extracts the flight numbers and times and updates this page. The robot has no other purpose in life. In this way it is much like this website.
Is this surveillance?
It is consensual surveillance, which is the good kind. The robot only ever sees booking confirmations that have been deliberately forwarded to it. It cannot see her texts, her bank account, or her browser history, and frankly it would not want to.
Why does she live in Perth?
Nobody knows. Theories include: a job, love, the weather, an elaborate bit that has gone on far too long, and witness protection.
Isn't Perth quite nice?
Perth is beautiful, sunny, and 2,720km from anyone who cares about her. This website makes no further comment.
The countdown says zero. Where is she?
Melbourne. Go outside. Look for a person complaining about the cold in a way that suggests they used to be Victorian and have gone soft.
Can I add a flight?
If you are Grace: forward the confirmation email to the robot and it will appear here within the hour. If you are not Grace: no, and stop trying.
