Speaker 1 (00:00):
Imagine having Ballei Valley on a flight from Denverisar to
Brisbane and the toilets on the plane were out of water.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Market nine News having chaos on a Virgin Airlines flight
from Bali to Brisbane with all of the toilets on
board breaking down during this six hour trip. Let's go
live to nine Queensland reporter Ned Balm need an uncomfortable
journey for passengers to say the least.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
Yeah, that's putting it politely. We've had these photos come
through of clogged toilets, out of water toilets and this
was all on a flight from den Pasar to Brisbane,
that's about a six hour flight. They were out of commission.
Both toilets were out of commission for the last two
hours of that flight. Now, Virgin Australia, it's understood they
have contact people on that flight, off them some form
(00:47):
of credit and apology, but certainly not the ideal way
to come back into Brisbane because that was a very
uncomfortable situation. Some had to just use the toilet as
it was, others had to use bottles, So a very
uncle situation and you could not have picked a worse
route for it. So to go on, because, as we're
all aware through whether it's through ourselves or with friends,
(01:08):
Barley Belly is a real thing. That is not the
route you want this to.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
Have it on.
Speaker 5 (01:12):
No, it's a real thing, money and you know, real
thing of the worst.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
There's no portaloo out on the wing mane.
Speaker 5 (01:21):
No, you know, I'm no great flyer, and I would
not go to Balley for that reason. That's been always
been my fear. You go on this fabulous holiday and
then you get crook. Imagine those two things together, cots
and not just if it was everyone, like potentially not everyone,
but a whole heap of you with the same thing.
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
No, Well you came to my aid with the bottle
line down in Sydney Street here when we're doing there
was no porterloo. I was running around houses saying can
you let me in? And there was no one home.
They're all down to our outside broadcast.
Speaker 5 (01:53):
They'd gone to work.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
I couldn't do it in the bushes. Someone would have
seen me.
Speaker 5 (01:57):
I had to get your bottle. At that stage, I
had morning sickness, so all I wanted to do was
throw up. And the more you kept talking about wanting
to go to the toilet. That's the worst. It was
the worst experience. We'll never do that again. Sorry, but
we know what it's like. There's nothing worse when you've
got to go.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
When have you had to go and there was nowhere
to go? Rob's and Kendall, Rob, what's your story?
Speaker 4 (02:19):
Good morning guys?
Speaker 6 (02:20):
How are you great?
Speaker 1 (02:21):
Thank you? When have you had to go and there
was nowhere to go?
Speaker 4 (02:24):
Oh? I used to do traffic controls up into Womba
and it involved going down to the main road through
esk and all that. Yeah, busted to go. No bushes
were completely out and openly wife home, damn there as
it was terrible. I had to drive to the next house.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Why didn't you just jump in the dam?
Speaker 5 (02:49):
You can't come out all wet and dripping and like,
you know, what did you do? I just went for
a swim because I needed the loop.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
My mother used to say, if you pee in a okay,
there'd be a blue ring that comes around you.
Speaker 4 (03:02):
They put some sort of but not with in here.
Speaker 5 (03:05):
Then I actually got over my fear of being stuck somewhere.
When I first went camping and I had to go
out in the middle of nowhere, I guess that was
nobody else was there?
Speaker 1 (03:18):
That was what did you do?
Speaker 4 (03:20):
Where did you go? I ended up driving until I
come to a house, an old farm, and I went
in there and luckily the lady was there. She let
me in.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
I was nice.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
That's nice.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Didn't happen me?
Speaker 4 (03:31):
I didn't. I didn't have that situation again because I
went and bought a Porterloo, which I put in my
one of those little camper ones.
Speaker 5 (03:37):
Oh yeah, I put in my.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
Poor wheel drive. Yeah, so that I wouldn't be in
that position again.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Sometimes the porter Loo is just not around Brad's in
Pinging Bar Brad when if you had to go and
there was nowhere to go.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
I was stuck on the end one north found one
morning to the traffic jam, and as soon as I
could find a breakdown lane, I got out.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
I popped off boot of the truck.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Yeah forward, I got in between the left hand front
steer tour and.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
The number one doing an all change at the same time.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Mate, This is it.
Speaker 5 (04:14):
It was stuck in traffic. That's a great idea to
just pretend you're broken down. You got a truck right,
fabulous wouldn't work in my mini.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
No traces traces whenever you had to go, and there
was nowhere to go.
Speaker 6 (04:29):
Oh now, this is not a proud moment.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
So this was years ago.
Speaker 6 (04:34):
When King George Queret still had bushes and tree before
it became the concrete jungle. And there was about four
of us girls. We've been out nightclubbing, drinking, dancing, and
the second we left, I had this urged to go
to the toilet, and of course they wouldn't let you
back in because.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
They were closed, and I said, I'm just going to
have to go.
Speaker 7 (04:54):
So there used to be like a hedge. There was
a hedgeting in King George Square.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
So I'm behind the hedge.
Speaker 6 (05:02):
I went and the girls were like waiting over near
one of the statues.
Speaker 7 (05:07):
But the issue was I could hear people talking past me,
and all of it good out of lie. I hear
this guy go, oh god, I'm busting and I'm thinking, no, mate,
you're not coming behind here. So I thought I was
thinking it, but I said it out loud and I
(05:27):
got no, mate, you're not coming behind it. And I
could see them and they are like, oh my god.
But they didn't know what I was doing. You know.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
Thank well, they probably had a good gear that was
my true.
Speaker 7 (05:40):
And I'm not and I'm not really a good weare
I tend.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
To wheel over my feet.
Speaker 5 (05:43):
Oh no, yeah, imagine if he came around and didn't
know you were there and started going at the same time.
Speaker 7 (05:53):
I'm so lucky that he was talking to his mate going,
you know, i've really got to went on that you're
not coming behind here.
