It’s crazy how lucky I must have been when leaving and coming back through MEL for my last trip. Absolutely seamless experiences both ways for me, yet on other days things like this happen.
Honestly, most times I’ve had a seamless experience, leaving was a breeze. Today was just a coordinated clusterfuck. several swears were let loose when the smart Gates repeatedly broke down for no reason. I think a whole heap of people all arriving at once including a huge plane from Indonesia didn’t help. They do make you declare if you’ve been in Indonesia in the last 7 days and sometimes computer does not like that and has a tanty.

Welcome back to the country though!

Yea coming back from Indo a few months ago they (at MEL) really hounded everyone if they’d been on a farm. FMD I think was the thing.
Welcome back!
And somehow for us, despite declaring we’ve been to farmland, we’ve brought meds and all, we got directed straight to the exit.
