They don't even sponsor the Melbourne Cup anymore. Why - do I hear you ask? They don't have to!

You wouldn't get a job at the ABC!

Or never ask!

They should update their website - they are shut on XMAS day, which may suit 43.9% of the Christian population, but for the other 56.1% who don't give a toss, it is poor business.

@JohnK Is it this car park that is shut on Christmas Day? https://www.bne.com.au/passenger/parking/parklong

@Ansett Nostalgic That's an interesting comment that I need to investigate more thoroughly. What is it about CI that is superior to CX? I am looking at t a few trips for early next year so it's a timely discussion, thanks
