This item came up on the 7PM project on Ten where it was reported that Qantas had in fact 'come to a settlement!!'. So looks like this person (claiming a burst ear drum) got something!

Hmmm...

So does that mean, if this person with an apparently burst eardrum, was say, traveling here in Sydney as a tourist for example, and happened to experience a screaming child on our public transport (e.g. the trains), he/she would then file a case against our NSW State transport department for damages?

Where's Judge Judy when you need her...

Was on a Turkish Airlines flight from Ankara to Istanbul yesterday and some little rat bag of a kid had a vuvuzela. In the terminal he was quite freely blowing the bloody thing. Ankara is a big empty terminal so it echoed like buggery. Luckily on board he didn't blow it. Could well imagine the damages claim if an American was on-board.

It would be interesting to see someone trying to sue a turkish airlines.
