I had the misfortune to arrive at Melbourne's international terminal early one morning last week. I have to say it was the worst I have experienced anywhere. The CIQ facilities were totally inadequate to cope with the number of arriving passengers and crew, resulting in very long queues and more than a few frayed tempers. The arrival hall is very rundown and in dire need of a makeover.
What a way to welcome visitors to our country. Honestly, there are so-called third world countries that have far better airports than Australia.
