So let's start a collection for all the poor executives who can't sleep at night for not meeting their bosses target. Then let's start working 100 hours+ for the very same reason ..... and so on.

You are really, really pathetic.

Inform your boss the targets are unrealistic and he / she might want to reevaluate the perceived savings !

Then start looking for another job where bullying is not the norm ..

Call it what you will, in 2000 I got £55 at LHR, inflation means it should be about £95. Do we get that?

I'm not missing the point at all. It was a lighthearted comment about a particular layover, in this case LHR. Some of the routes work well for allowances, some don't. East bound can be a bitch, I agree, but I suspect in the many years you've done here, not one CSR has been submitted regarding allowance discrepancies. Yet you come on here and happily moan all day. Pathetic.

And for the record, if you're only getting a 10% discount, it probably means the actual allowances are far higher. Geneva is a case in point. Wasn't that the crux of the original argument, the more discount, the less cash? Perhaps it's you who's missing the point.

And if things get really tough you'll have to start improvising.

Don't worry Guys and Gals, from what I hear this will all be academic due to the issuing of meal vouchers replacing actual money, in 2018.
Keep Discovering Tomorrow!

Harry, you are correct no CSR's but several emails to Fleet.
Again you missed the point about the 10%. Many of the layovers have 50% disc on the restaurant prices, as well as super cheap breakfasts, but only 10% on room service. The allowance of course is based on the 50%. If you stay on Dubai time at many of our destinations then the restaurants are closed for much of your wake time. Still you can always plan your rest around the cheap breakfast.

OKC, loving that pizza warmer, mmmm melted cheese with added starch
