This sucks...

Allan Joyce, CEO of Qantas has grounded all aircraft pending the resolution of the industrial action between the company and three of the workers unions. So amongst other things, I can't go to the Gold Coast on Monday as there is no chance in hell staff are going to manage to walk onto any flight - pretty much like everyone else - as Jetstar (who are still operating) are taking the load of passangers.

Excellent. Really excellent.
