Qantas passengers stranded in LA airport

Qantas strands people on the other side of the world AGAIN.
Doesn't even put them in a hotel for the night!

This seems to happen so often these days, that people don't even bother posting about it any more!

Qantas passengers stranded in LA airport

Qantas passengers spent a night on the floor of Los Angeles Airport after their flight to Sydney was delayed 23 hours due to an "unfortunate sequence of events".
Seems to be more issues due to lack of engineers and maintenance, and Qantas's "fix on fail" policy these days.

Alan must be so proud!

Looks like they had to hold for a while over Coolangatta before being allowed to land at Brisbane too

You might try reposting on a more appropriate passenger forum.

SLF should read the fine print. Opps, I notice the fine print is longer than can be found in the twittersphere
