Long time ago I know, but Mrs MAP experienced an excellent service as a Comp when all the stops were pulled to get her back to UK.
Up in Woomera, one Friday evening and last flight until Monday to Adelaide had just departed when we got a message that her mum was critically ill in Ipswich hospital. We had to wait for authority to come through from Innsworth, but roads from Woomera were flooded so could not drive down ready. They organised a private flight first thing Saturday morning in a 2 seater (all she remembered were the pilot's hairy legs - nothing else!) to Adelaide airport to meet with flight to Melbourne to connect with BA to London. Private hire car to Ipswich where everyone could not believe she was in Australia just over a day ago.
Her mother survived, due, in part, to the presence of her daughter so the Doctors thought. Teamwork at its very best.
