This morning on the way into the airport my regular driver was busy so I got his good mate who I've had as a driver before.
Anyway today the topic moved on to people missing their flights...
The told me on one occasion where he picked up a guy from Neutral Bay 30 mins before an international flight...
The man calmly called the airline and told them he was stuck in traffic and he'd be late...
The taxi driver's obviously racing when he was told to take his time...
Turns out he was such a high level frequent flyer they actually delayed the flight for him...
They got to the airport, people rushed to the taxi to grab his bags and seems as though he made it on to his flight...
I actually can't believe this would happen but the guy I was with is a good guy, he was quite pissed off that his customer was so calm about it when he was holding everyone up...
