Recently back from 2 international trips, and since the new passport control baggage claim has opened the smart gates work for me and my priority tagged luggage has been in the first 10 bags out!
Smartgate has never worked for me before, in over 30-40 attempts at 3 Australian airports. This time it worked straight away, and gives me hope that it isn't actually my dud passport causing problems.
The customs/immigration areas have had no queues and been very quick to pass, and the priority baggage actually worked.
I'd be interested to hear if it worked for others too, or if I have just had 2 fluke-y arrivals. Both have been QF78 on a sunday at almost midnight...
