Watchdog has his yearly bark.- KSA / YSSY

Can anyone think of anything Joyce has done that was even slightly intended to improve engagement?
Sydney airport criticised for expensive, poor service Possibly a good time for AJ to pursue a better deal from these airport guys, a different focal point to the worn out practice of culling staff, would probably lift crew spirits.
As a Sydney person, KSA was built by Qantas, if you go back to the QF TN AN days. Not sure if Qantas was ever rewarded properly for the "good will" it provided when the Federal Government sold it off. I always felt Qantas should have been in this deal where it shared the yearly profits for the airport. say ten percent of total..he he.

Just 1 % of the car park would do me fine.

Watchdog has his yearly bark.

The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission's annual airport monitoring report typically features criticism of service at Sydney. But yesterday's report was particularly harsh and went close to suggesting the airport was abusing its monopoly.

The commission chairman, Graeme Samuel, said Sydney Airport stood out compared to other airports that had responded to concerns about service quality.
''The airport's monopoly position, the airlines' ongoing dissatisfaction with the service they receive, as well as increasing prices and profits over time, all point to Sydney Airport earning monopoly profits from the services it provides to airlines,'' the report said.
This story adds rocket fuel to the case: a second Sydney airport is required, one QF, the other for J*, (the J* base is a 24 hour operation.) AJ should be pushing this angle openly if can't get a better deal...
