while i dont profess do understand the situation fully, i think we should throw the leaders of the union to deal with the passengers they want to cause it, they can bloody well deal with the backlash.

I think the last thing the airline would want to do is give the unions unrestricted access to the public to put across their point and gain further support.

Please keep in mind that the reporting in this article does not necessarily represent factual information on the events.
It is interesting Alice Henry reports that passengers were taken to a transit lounge and provided with 'styrofoam cups and teabags' amid Qantas stating customers would be provided with food and drinks. Ironic that it was Alice's 'husband' who initiated the gate-crashing of the Qantas Club. And why did Alice fail to mention that all customers were provided with vouchers to use for meals in the terminal? I am sure Alice received one... I also find it interesting that 4 x toilets are suddenly blocked overnight, yet there was no indication of this on the previous day. If engineers are responsible for this then shame on them. |

Considering the aircraft was on the ground and the toilets were fine, it seems clear that there was some intereference from staff. Sadly there have been previous acts of sabotage and this looks the same. Maybe the passengers should direct thier anger at the person/people who did that - that played a big part in the delay.
The engineers have to be careful making thier point - an act of sabotage just adds more ammunition for thier jobs to go offshore . |

No Marty, I actually have sources within QF Engineering who have the facts of the story........and I am not going to share the facts compared to the news article. I might as well not comment on any story because everytime it happens, there is slanging match between members.
