Pick people up at departures not arrivals, less hectic and they don't move you on while you are waiting!

Check your luggage before leaving the airport, they might have broken it, especially the wheels. Claim the damage at the airport before you leave.

Avoid the duty free shop when purchasing booze. The liquor shop next to Woolies in Terminal B (before security) has better prices.

Given the choice of domestic lounges, I'd say my order of preference would currently be Slow Lounge, SAA (general-I'm not Platinum Voyager, so can't comment on that area) then Premier Lounge.

Well it's not Cape Town. Initiative with check in staff is sorely lacking.
