Dear Qantas: It’s Not Me, It’s You (A220s, Lounges, Curry, and Other Adventures)

It's a complete replacement, not just maintenance.
But an escalator shouldnt take 6 months to assemble onsite.

You can use the lift in MEL too, not just SYD.
In SYD you just help yourself to the lift in MEL the other week it was being guarded by QF staff deciding if you really needed to use it or not (i.e. yes to wheelchairs and old people, no to everyone else)!

I'm fairly certain they're breaking the law if they're doing that, not all disabilities/injuries are visible.

When I was there last month they just said it's available for anybody that needed it. I would count an inability to carry luggage down stairs as qualifying.

I was offered the lift to go down but they said you had to go back of house and be escorted. I declined.
