The last time I tried it, it was $4.50 if you had a boarding pass. How many crew have one of them.

I was told, no boarding pass no concession $13.50 thanks. "I'm crew, I came off an international flight on the GD, and I am on travelling on a ticketless airline." Your problem arsehole, no boarding pass no concession. A while has passed and I imagine $15 is probably the latest figure.

The thing that really got up my nose was that international travellers going to the wizz bang automated ticket machines are asked for full tote odds. The concession is only available at the ticket counter. The unknowing would pay the $13.50 /$15.00 and be none the wiser until a few days later when they understood the value of the local currency,and then would realise they had paid an extrordinary amount for a very short ride.

Took it up with the authorities, but they really didn't want to know about it. Probably in the pay of those theiving pricks at Mac bank (nsw inc).

Just another Sydney rip off in the ripoff capital of the country.

I'm with Sunfish, abandon the joint.

Feel much better, now where is that glass of red.
