MONEY!!!
It blows me away what the BAC seems to get away with it is as if they are not regulated buy any form of government at all and can basically do as they please.
I do alot of flying between Brisbane and Adelaide and have done for many years now utilising taxis to get to and from. The BAC a couple of years ago decided that they would impose a $1 surcharge that the pasenger must pay when leaving the terminal.
I thought to myself how can they do this how can I be charged a fee to use a taxi, since then this has trippled. The Adelaide airport has no fee last time I was in Melbourne there was no fee and there was no fee at Sydney last time I was there either.
The amount of taxi's that come through the Brisbane airport each day at $3 dollars a go over a year would be an absurd amount of money FOR WHAT!!
I hope they dont take your creek away from you Watto79 it sounds like a little piece of paradise and if it looks like they are going to then we (the people) need to stop it.
