Baggage Reclaim Blues
I have just returned from my annual golf trip to Portugal and for once had to check in baggage. (Most of my flying is business related and I tend to 'travel light' with only hand luggage.) Once again I have had to suffer the muppets at the baggage reclaim who insist on crowding the carousel usually with at least one trolley, sometimes two, so that less than half the passengers can see what luggage is on the conveyor.
Why can these twonks not stand back 2 or 3 meters and allow everyone a clear view of the conveyor? When your bag arrives, step forward, collect bag and move away! Too simple I suppose?
The only good thing is that when I spot my golf clubs, force my way to the conveyor and hoist them off, I can wallop a few idiots with a rather heavy bag getting them clear!
Anyone else feel the same way?
