Busting the alcohol rules will always bring trouble and quite rightly so.

Forgive me if I misread your post, but I interpreted your statement as this was a cabin crew rather than a coked up flight crew problem. In that the cabin crew are just out to get the flight crew. I got the impression that you overlooked the actual problem and concentrated on the politics.

You seemed to prefer an Emirates style of a crew being fearful of causing waves for anyone more senior. Indeed you propose it is better to not get caught rather than to not get coked.

Your reply to me contradicts my intetpretation of your post, so I do apologise if I got it wrong and we are on the same page.
