BME is so small they are having to fly in an engineer to fix the problem.

The solution seems to be typically QF - Gate tells us to contact the checkin desk. Checkin desk says they have no authority to change route, and tells us to contact QF direct. 131313 tells us that we ought to be in the air so why are we calling, and it must be dealt with on the ground.

Aghghghghgh!

The QP in the tin shed is so small that it's already runout of wine. And seats.
