Interesting...

Whilst there are clauses in the EBA protecting the Crew rest Facility, just have a look at what the company is doing to Short Haul Crew at the moment..

We have a 4 day Singapore and on the last day we operate SIN-DRW-ADL-SYD all in one hit..its rostered at 13 hours 20 mins but always goes over 14 hours as they cant turn the stupid A330-300 around quick enough. Crew rest is provided.. 4 seats in the cabin right in front of the Left 3 toilet and next to the two centre toilets.. Its absolutely charming hearing that vacuum flush and doors banging and people popping their heads in to see "Whats behind the curtain"

Its totally useless anyway because the type of service we do and these sector times usually means some crew dont even get a break, especially the on board manager..

A sign of things to come
