I operated on the 10th, BHX-HER-BHX, there were 5 of us on the crew; 3 in the new uniform and 2 in the old. Sadly, I was one of the ones in the old uniform!

There are a lot of crew still wearing the old uniform at the moment, whilst the manufacturing company clears the backlog of re-sized orders. I haven’t spoken to anyone from the company that got everything the right size at the right time, possibly something to do with the ridiculous European sizing tables...

I even had to send my trolley bag back because after 2 weeks of use, 2 of the zips had broken rendering the lock useless!

Expect to continue spotting the 'classic' uniform on board for at least the next two weeks!

Having moaned a lot, I must say, the crew that were in the new uniform on the 10th really enjoyed wearing it, and looked great!
