More than likely.
It helps.
Frankfurt airport is an outstanding facility.Sydney is crap.
Travelled through both extensively. Yatala Prison looks better than Frankfurt on the outside and probably easier to get around inside.
No airport except Singapore is anything to write home about, and yes that includes HKK and especially Beijing which is a disaster.
AQUIS and Customs are not undermanned. On most occassions there appears to be one customs officer for every three arriving passengers.
Wrong entirely. Allmost all of the bottlenecks in Sydney are caused by AQUIS understaffing. This is exsacerbated by the curfew dumping 10.4 million pax into the arrivals hall at 6-7Am each day.
If you REALLY want to see a dysfunctional airport, try Joburg anytime or Capetown at 7 in the morning.
Nor have you lived til you've arrived at POM at rthe wrong time.
Australia is falling way behind the rest of the world in tourist infrastructure.

Australia :the Banana Republic...run by monkeys for thirty years
No, there are many other reasons, not the least is people from within knocking the system instead of working to improve it.
