I see Melbourne has greeted me upon my return back to the country with it’s usual sunny disposition.
Tullamarine Airport is fucked. 8 planes all land at once. All passengers are jammed into a narrow corridor lining up for the egates.
Foreigners and children don’t use them, so they have to continue. But there’s no sign saying that. You only know if a random border security officer happens to swan past you.
Baggage carousels are a joke. Queueing for customs declaration also a joke.
@Pilk @wscholermann Also, if you’ve got checked baggage and you’re flying to Tullamarine, I suggest you bring a good book.
Because you’ll be waiting… And waiting… And waiting…
I keep hearing horror stories but my last trip was spectacular both on departure and arrival. I barely slowed down on my way out and same for on my way back in. No lines in either case. Scanned my stuff which I had out and ready and waltzed through no worries.
Picked up the bags from the carousel they sent me to. Off I went. Must have just been lucky.
