Yep, that was us. R.Pack shut down on turnaround in Cayo Coco after arriving from Havana, so we decided to accept a non-etops return to Italy. Not the best of situations but allowable under the boeing MEL so practibable or probably my job on the line in todays happy working environment.
Must say the 277 passengers on board were the most obnoctious group of people I have ever met in my 20 year carreer.
After nearly 20 hours of duty-allowable under Italian FTLs(24 hours with our 3rd.crew member)- they had the courage to virtually spit in the faces of my cabin crew.
We regularly ply back and forth across the pond code-sharing with Cubana and apart from the odd smoker who refuses to obey the regs we have no problems, but yesterday was something else.
Still, didn't Greenland look spectacular! Your remark amused me and created a bit of mirth in what was a really heavy day.
Happy and safe flying, Zingaro.
