Greg Norman bites a Qantas wing‑tip souvenir, calls airline “Never‑On‑Time”

Golf great Greg Norman made headlines at Sydney Airport when he took a bite out of a souvenir wing‑tip from Qantas. The playful act was accompanied by his tongue‑in‑cheek label for the carrier as the “Never‑On‑Time” airline.

Norman’s bite and quip quickly spread across media and social platforms, with observers noting the irony of a sports icon targeting an airline long criticised for its delays. While the airline has not issued a formal response, the incident has reignited the conversation about Qantas’s on‑time performance and the broader perception of its reliability.

The episode underscores how a single, cheeky gesture can spotlight a long‑standing reputation, leaving both fans of the sport and airline customers chewing over the same question: does Qantas really live up to its “Never‑On‑Time” nickname?
