Why the late departures?
It's not rocket science fellas.
35 minute transits? Yeah right!
15 minutes to get them off, boarding 22 minutes before departure?
Hmmmm.
What! You want to clean and cater the A/C too?
What! The operating crew are coming in on another (late) service at the other end of the Terminal.
Can't get the bags off/on quickly enough because we've laid some porters off.
Wait 3-4 minutes for a loadsheet after doors closed.
No pushback tug (laid some more people off)
Tell 'em their dreamin!
Not to mention the 10 minute taxi to/from 16L/34R in SYD.
