The cabin crew were not going back for work, they had a few more days off and should have waited for the next flight or even went back by another route. The capt in question is a wonderful guy and alot of the 200 captains in ryr will tell you they were taught alot by him. It is a shame to see him go as the younger guys will not have the chance to learn from him but for something like this he had to go. It is just a shame he had to leave like this and anybody who knows him will agree with me.
I wish him all the best in his future as he was a gent to work with and a gent to know.
