Hugh Jarse said,
"cabin crew tidy up at outports. That's the way it's been for the 10 years I've been where I am.
Anyway, it works both ways. Quite regular is
the occurence that the F/A's will help put the
pins and bungs in on terminating flights.
What's wrong with that?"
Nothing if you work for a small outfit, I suppose.
What most of us are referring to is "helping out" on a B737, A320 or bigger A/C, at say Sydney or Melbourne.
