Australian ports(except the very small ones) used qantas employed ground handlers,overseas ports used 3rd party companies as it made no sense to have their own employees for a small amount of flights.
You will find there are basically no ex QF employees working for the contractors,probably due to the crap pay/hrs being offered.
Anyway,as per usual the denial continues,ex kiwi farmer AD was on radio yesterday claiming the lost bag figures were no worse than pre covid & the call centre wait times are no problem!
I wouldnt have thought it was too hard to read the room but apparently he doesnt give a sh.. about anything except his fat pay packet.
