Anyone else experience the joy of the baggage fail at BNE domestic airport this morning? Haven’t seen the QF section of the airport look so full (and angry) for a while.
Most early morning flights were delayed and baggage appears to be a nightmare.
I managed to check mine in, after they got the system up again but my flight had closed so needed to be done manually.
Anyway, my bag is still sitting at BNE now (via AirTag tracking).
My day gets better, I’m missing my connecting flight and have already been moved to a later regional flights. Time to reschedule meets when I get to SYD lounge.
Joys of Monday….

I had family members flying Qantas out of BNE domestic this morning. They experienced the same issue. Took an hour to drop their bags. Flight was then delayed and only 1/2 checked bags arrived at the destination.
 
Should provide an update. My bags did arrive on the last flight into DBO on Monday. My work colleagues didn’t experience the same luck. They took several days to arrive
