Golf News | Australian Airline Remains Grounded Thanks To Golf Clubs and Coffee

The Australian airline Quantas has found itself in legal tangling because of such unrelated items as golf clubs and coffee.The airline ran in to trouble involving golf clubs when the English golfer Samantha Head used the Quantas to travel to the Australian Open. The airline misdirected the professional’s golf equipment to LA instead of on course with her journey to Sydney. Head is about to begin legal proceedings to re-coup her losses, both of the item and her loss in the Open. She cites her lack of success as a result of not having her own golf clubs and therefore Quantas are in the firing line.

A Quantas Boeing 767 flight was grounded by its own crew. The Pilot and crew refused to fly when it was observed that a sink on the aircraft had been blocked by coffee grounds.

Concerned by the potential for spills and damage being caused to electronics, the Quantas staff had customer safety as a priority when they refused to board.
