Knowing someone that was in management there I think they do more than fine and make an absolute killing.Have never once stopped to peruse anything in the arrivals duty free - so whilst they make you walk through Im not sure how much business they get as a result

That's what I was going to say. It's normal, it's SYD!!!"never seen it so bad"?...

That kind of data would be very easy to produce, even semi-manually. The best would be to display or even integrate the border control real-time entry counts to the baggage handling: show when the first premium pax for a given flight are through to trigger the premium baggage to sent to the belt, and similarly show when e.g. 25% of the non-premium pax are through and start sending their baggage to the belt.This had me thinking whether there be [reliable] data available to baggage handling operations around the average time from landing to passing through immigration, based on a flight's origin? I would expect that NZ or SG flights would clear immigration quite quickly, for example, while flights from the sub-continent, China or even the ME3 might be at the higher end of the time scale.
Perhaps I was just overthinking this as I stewed in anger at seeing the same triple glad-wrapped Beverly Hills Polo Club suitcase go by for a 47th lap of SYD Belt 3; or at least, that's how many I counted after I arrived off Flight B.
