NightLink is the name given to the all-night Translink services that leave Fortitude Valley, Brisbane City and Surfers Paradise on the Gold Coast late Friday and Saturday nights.
[3][4] Originally rail services ran on all lines in greater Brisbane; those with low patronage were discontinued in August 2006 and replaced with buses.
[8] The NightLink brand also includes special "FlatFare" taxi services operating on Friday and Saturday nights.
In Greater Brisbane, the taxis can travel as far as Narangba in the north, Beenleigh in the south, Victoria Point in the east and Karana Downs in the west, and passengers are charged based on the number of FlatFare zones included in their journey.
[9] On the Gold Coast, the taxis can travel as far as Paradise Point in the north, Varsity Lakes in the south and Nerang in the west.
