Anyone been to Venice Marco Polo (Italy)?

Arrived there at about 7pm on a Britannia 757 from MAN, along with 235 other pax off on their jollys. A Lufthansa 737 which landed just after us was also disembarking, and was pretty much full. There are 3 luggage reclaim belts. The Lufthansa bags come out on Belt 1. The Britannia bags come out on Belt 1 about 5 minutes after the Lufthansa bags. The result is about 350 people all crowding round 1 baggage belt in a ridiculously cramped arrivals hall when 2 belts are sitting there completely empty but still turning- ie.they are working, but the baggage handlers were probably to bloody lazy to carry the bags the extra 100m to belt 2.

Wouldn't mind if this was a one off, but it happens every time I go to VCE, whichever airline I fly with. Can't wait till the new terminal opens!

Anyone else been here?
