@theageaustralia: After 56 years of operation, Melbourne Airport’s departures ramp has officially closed, with new services rolled out to travellers on Tuesday morning. Besides a few slightly lost passengers and concerns about additional charges, the new system flowed fairly smoothly and experienced minimal traffic congestion.

I do not fly places anymore because of how annoying the airport is.

Entering and exiting today was seamless. However, was picking up my mum who has health issues but not yet got a disabled sticker. I went to go meet her to help her as she wasn’t feeling well and security stopped me and told me to return to my car, she needed to ask someone for help. When I spoke to a melb airport rep, sounded like if passengers needed help they needed to pre book (was also mums experience when going up and asking). I was encouraged to go back to my car or I might have a fine on my window, so keep that in mind as well.

Do you get trolleys for international travellers at drop off place so that they don’t have to carry suitcases and walk all the way ??
