AJ a great contributor to the current debacle. His time at the helm of his low cost juggernaut refining the airline ticket cost structure to make baggage an extra now has everyone taking the biggest bag possible as carry on. Airport security parent company offshore. You reap what you sow. I notice the service at QF also slipped massively and now far from a premium carrier since he let all the ground people go. 5-10mins just to get an aircraft door open and then another 30mins waiting for a checked bag. That combined with the check in and security debacles will make a lot of people especially the leisure type really assess their quick weekend escape. Is all the aggravation worth it for a weekend in Melbourne or the Gold Coast.
