On boarding the CC , said come this way past PE to B class.
The FM came to my seat and went out of his way to warmly welcome me and provide me with any thing he could do to make my flight enjoyable. He informed me that the Capt would come an see me after dinner, which he did.
Does that “ respect “ for Pilots sound like VA. Does that ability for the VA Capt to look after not only our own but other Airline crew sound like VA.
We all know the answer.
Money and conditions are really important, at VA they are pathetic.
Respect for what we do is also important, Alex just put out an EM saying this.
Time VA for , if u talk the talk WALK IT.
Others do.
Wow, what an entitled weiner you are
