Too right. The crew are left trying to enforce the regs. Fact is most of the punters have spent the last week/two weeks ignoring the regulations. I really hope the crews all test negative. They will all lose flight pay whilst isolating though. It doesnt take much to work out folk will ignore the regs unfortuantely those that follow the rules have just got to put up with it or don't go on holiday in the first place - snowflakes
