I had a similar issue with J* in Hobart. The a/c went tech due to the airbridge that jumped out in front of it. We were in the terminal for about 8 hours. The Desk crew went home at about 4 hours before we departed, and left it up to the flight crew to apologise. There was no Jestar employee in the airport at all.

Interesting what would have happened if they'd used the emergency exits to escape - I assume they were back at the gate (with exit slides therefore disarmed ). I think I'd have been calling the Police/the media/both by then anyway!

QF Engineers are there 24/7 Unusual about the pax. I would have assumed that the aircraft was parked on the bay and engines shut down. They only have a few Licensed guys on the 743 and with the overtime bans would have gone home after there shift had finished. ie No Engineering coverage.

I was thinking along the same lines as what Brenden has written. The overtime bans must be starting to have an significant impact not only on the OTP figures, but at a more basic level if you like, on aircraft servicability.
The flow on effect of this is increasingly evident.
