Qantas Club Lounge Mackay voted worst in Australia
Its single, unisex toilet smells.
It's as cramped as an Ipswich school bus.
Its food is as un-appetising as a Queensland boarding school dining room.
Its liquor bar regularly opens well after the advertised hour of 2pm.
It doesn't have any staff checking the credentials of supposed members, creating the feeling of a sardine sandwich as non Qantas club members sneak in.
Its computer stations consist of two tables with a double power point.
In fact, the Qantas Club Lounge at Mackay Airport - Gateway to the Barrier Reef - is nothing but an unmitigated embarrassment to Tourism Queensland.
A survey conducted by Consumer Watch has revealed Mackay as the worst Qantas Club Lounge in Australia.
It should be immediately revamped by Qantas or closed.

Meanwhile, Mackay remains at the top of the pile of Qantas Third-Class Customer facilities.
