A Qantas passenger has slammed the airline after her dream holiday to Fiji was ruined when her luggage was given back to her soaking wet.
Shirley Becke, 70, had planned the getaway to celebrate her birthday with her husband and booked a flight from Sydney to the island hotspot on April 5.
To her horror, Ms Becke claimed her luggage was returned to her wet after it had been left out in the rain on the tarmac back in Sydney for at least 30 minutes.
The NSW capital experienced one of its wettest days on record with the region pummelled by its heaviest rainfall in four years.
'When we arrived at our hotel and opened our bags, our clothes and toiletries were wet,' Ms Becke told Yahoo.

The 70-year-old was forced to spend the first night of her holiday without any clothes - including her underwear.
Ms Becke said she had to dry her wet clothes and belongings, including her suitcase, on the balcony of the hotel.
'I didn't have any dry clothing available until the next day as I had to drape all the wet clothing on the furniture located on the balcony,' she said.
Ms Becke took photos of the damage showing wet patches on the suitcase and clothes as well as soggy medication packaging.
