Anybody else experienced delays checking in at Brisbane?
Monday 15th. Walked thru Qantas doors at 6.10am for a 6.50am flight, a little tight for check in bags but stuff happens! Had OLBP. 20 minutes to get to QC bag drop. Where I was advised cut off was past, (apparently there had been a call to come forward - not audible from back of queue, so dufus here thinks its all ok.) - must get next flight. go to ticket counter - Top blokes here put me on 7.50 flight and provide good seat!! They advised that 85 ground staff have quit in last 12 months and none replaced.
Further observations and chats reveal that there were only 2 staff covering all of QC & Bus. Check Ins and similar wait time for both bag drop and full check In. Apparently Economy Check in was over 1 hour.:shock:
