At Urban Quest, the team experience speaks louder than the pitch — and no one puts it better than those who’ve lived it. Recently, Jetstar‘s technology team from their Collingwood office joined us for a CBD-based corporate team building experience in Melbourne, and their feedback says it all.
Beyond the Desk: Building New Bonds
While the Jetstar tech team works under the same roof, they don’t always collaborate day-to-day. Urban Quest team building activities in Melbourne gave them a chance to break out of their usual routines and build stronger personal connections.
“It was great to spend some time with people that you don’t always get to work with every day. It definitely helped build stronger relationships.”
Urban Quest challenges are designed to bring out the best in people working together, and the Jetstar crew embraced that fully.
Clever Questions, Clear Thinking
One of the first things that stood out to the team was the clever design of the puzzles and challenges.
“All the questions were really clever – and once you get the answer, they make complete sense. A lot of fun.”
That “aha” moment was key to their experience, and the satisfaction of cracking the clues made the game both rewarding and memorable.
Thinking Differently and Working as One
Urban Quest isn’t just fun; it subtly fosters new ways of thinking and encourages inclusive team dynamics.
“The biggest thing is it helps you think about things differently. With five people in a team, you need to make sure everyone’s included – and that means thinking outside the box.”
This kind of collaborative problem-solving translates directly back into the workplace, helping teams build better communication and decision-making skills.
What Would They Do Differently?
The Jetstar team reflected on strategy and how the experience revealed new ways to work smarter.
“In hindsight, delegation was key. For some stops, we could’ve split up and covered more ground – sharing tasks helped a lot.”
It’s this kind of insight, gained through play, that makes Urban Quest so valuable as a team building tool.
The team’s closing verdict was unambiguous:
“This is the first of many. This fits regardless of what the industry is, what the team structure is. Well worth doing on all levels.”
That observation — that Urban Quest works regardless of industry or team structure — reflects what makes the format broadly applicable. The competitive team challenge doesn’t require domain knowledge, seniority, or any particular skill set. It just requires five people willing to think differently together.
The Verdict? A Resounding Yes
“Absolutely. I think this is the first of many. It fits any industry, any team structure – and it’s fun too. You even get a bit of exercise! Definitely well worth doing on all levels.”
We’re thrilled to hear such a strong endorsement from a leading organisation like Jetstar. Their experience highlights exactly what we aim to deliver: smarter teams, stronger connections, and a whole lot of fun.
Stay tuned – we’ll soon be sharing more from Jetstar’s other teams, plus a look at how they stack up against our next corporate challengers from Melbourne Airport.
