T-Vasis - without a doubt the consumer is the ONLY winner in the changes in the industry in the 'bad old days'. Sadly tho in order for the caravan folk to get a cheap weekend down on the gold coast means that all involved in the industry are now on the whole earning less than people were getting 15 years ago.
Fanastic system for the consumer - although the thong and mullet crowd still expects the same treatment and service they were getting for a $800 return trip to SYD from MEL in the 90s.
The only loser in deregulation has been the employees Ts & Cs.
